Business outlook
Pros
International Travel Experience, the colleagues and friends you'll make, financial remuneration, the ability to work in an environment which is not only challenging but a giant black box of an industry to outsiders. The ability to control (and understand) such an asset, not only that - but someone elses asset. playing with million dollars worth of equipment.
Cons
The lack of knowledge of knowing where your going to be posted next, not seeing the ones you love for long periods of time. Not being able to tell the ones you love the next time you will see them. The length of jobs (offshore can be upto long periods of time) without a break.
