Pros

A place to start a career and get into the oil and gas or manufacturing industries and move on after accumulating experience and finding a more challenging and rewarding opportunity. A part of the "good-ole boy" network.

Cons

1. Too much middle management and corporate management that do not share the same mindset as the company's ground-level operations. 2. Little exposure and training programs to develop employees throughout their employment 3. Too many acquisitions without thorough planning of integration grows and creates a low-morale culture.

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.
