      Reckless take over of companies without analyzing the future course.

      Pros

      Weatherford international is among the largest service provider company to the upstream petroleum industry.It has more than 30000 employees world wide and involved in more than 90 countries.It's a fast growing company. If weatherford will survive this recession, it will become primier survice provider in oil and gas industry.

      Cons

      Getting salary increments and promotions in LWD/MWD product line is much difficult than other product line.

      I didn't even know his name! There was no sense of closeness with colleagues at WI

      Pros

      Make a quick buck. You may have the opportunity to see some different countries.

      Cons

      Lack or home life. The opportunity to take time off was non-existant. If you were to complete a vacation request form the supervisors would try to ignore it and hope that you stop asking. Lack of respect for employees health and well being. For instance, if I was working offshore and needed to come in to take care of personal or health matters it would take 2-3 days to get back on land, if not more! That is, if you could convince management to send out someone to relieve you. There were many instances where managers would hang up on field engineers mid-conversation.

      Weatherford-a tough company to get things done in

      Pros

      The company offers a nice benefit and RRSP package to all employees. There is no 3 month wait time to get the package.

      Cons

      No communication within the company; Weatherford has grown by acquisition and nobody seems to know who reports to who; each division is not consulted when changes to there division are considered-they are told after the fact; there is no "One Weatherford" as indicated within our company "Motto"
