Pros

Generally stable career path. There is room to advance and move around within the company. Benefits are competitive, and bonuses for salaried employees tend to be good.

Cons

The drilling tools segment of the company is still very much run by the "good ol' boy" philosophy. Who you know is what matters most for most of the service locations. Often times there are people in desired positions who have little business being there. This is noticed by most employees and, as you would expect, it tends to bring down morale.

Pros

Very work/life balance friendly. Very strong benefits package.

Cons

Very Siloed. NOV is the result of over 100 acquisitions and the fractured condition of systems and procedures is evident. Leadership is working on it.
