Good place to learn

Recommend

Pros

- Great pay with solid benefits (bonus, 401k, ESPP, deferred shares, vacation, etc) - Great place to learn, often working with global teams in Europe and Latin America - Its employees - Humble, friendly and collaborative culture - You will be given lots of responsibilities on day 1 - Midland: low cost of living, good schools, very safe, no traffic

Cons

- Midland: 5+ months of very cold weather, lack of good restaurants - Working from home is not an option, even after a snow storm - Internal politics probably similar to other Fortune 500 companies - Mistakes (not even minor) are not tolerated - In order to achieve annual EBITDA goals, leadership seems to focus too much on not spending. This hits morale once it is enforced every year. Year-end bonuses are very good, but you hear "no spending" on a constant basis
