Pros

Stability, the work is not challenging but you should be able to do what is assigned to you without much concern with making mistakes that will be held against you.

Cons

Because the work is not very challenging and some times there is not a lot of work to go around people tend to hoard the good work when they can find it. The processes that controls the engineering to manufacturing communication needs to be tightened so that NOV as a whole has a better understanding about what exactly was built and the problems associated with each build.
