Good Outfit to Work For

Business Outlook

Pros

Basin has a mostly positive culture, at least in the division I work in. At the "corporate" level, Basin runs with quite a bit of transparency. Also, they are not profit driven. Benefits are quite good, especially the retirement.

Cons

For whatever reason, some employees have quite a lot of un-deserved arrogance and certain levels of management appear to support if not encourage it.

Bureaucracy and lack of leadership prevent efficiency.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and benefits. In 20 words that is all I have to say. They are misguided that the military way is the most cost effective way to do business.

Cons

Stand around half the day waiting for work. Not rewarding.

Skewed to long term workers

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are middle of the road, on the plus side: pension if you stick it out, good 401k, and plenty of paid time off. Flex time and work from home occasionally if your supervisor allows it.

Cons

Everyone is stuck in the good old days. Continuing to do things the way they've always been done "just because" and despite recently poor financial performance. Management lies and make poor decisions with no repercussions. Middle of the road benefits for industry. No bonus or incentive pay. Pay is low end of industry standard. Experience (years served) is everything, few promotions, everyone gets same raise skewing pay to lazy long time workers. Almost cultish culture
