Pros

Good to have on your CV as a previous employer (due to size and technology focus of the company) Access to information and resources that make the job a bit easier

Cons

A nasty culture of nepotism exists here. Promotions hardly come to those who deserve it No career progression road map (even after integration with Schlumberger) Very inexperienced, incapable managers Employees are just a bit of statistic
