Pros

Good launching point for a career in the Oil and Gas industry but will need to switch companies if you have any ambition. Wft almost never lays off anyone, very seldom will Wft cull the heard of the dead weight, which leaves mediocre employees with no career plan to hibernate their lives away in an office for 20 years without advancement, this is also a big CON depending on your vantage point.

Cons

To much focus on external growth instead on internal efficiencies, 1980’s business modeling and poor management treatment of employees; bonus are just rumors (and only the very top managers in the inner circle get them) so don’t count on anything other than your paycheck, which will be on the lower side of market rate. Poor training, often thrown to the wolves’ to figure your job out based on job description hired for. CEU's are nonexistent so save your money to keep your own certifications current.
