Pros

- nice offices - good coffee and snacks in break room

Cons

- Horrible manager: easily threatened woman who has been at the company for a decade. She is petty, immature, passive aggressive, and has a known track record for PIPing and firing people. -24/7 schedule. You will not sleep. It’s a literal meat grinder. The company is well known for this. - Very siloed and super favortistic. They only give opportunities to favored alumni or nepos. - No ops geo or geotech has the opportunity to move up. They disclose it in the interview. Which is bs because the CEO is a geologist who started at the company as a geotech and worked his way up… - Compensation was ~$20k under market rate. Most companies have contract steering too, so this was two jobs for not even the market rate of one.

Pros

The benefits were excellent, including medical, dental, and vision coverage. When I was hired in 2010, PTO was determined by a combination of age and tenure. By the time I left in December 2016, I had accumulated about five weeks of vacation.

Cons

In 2017, upper management decided to close the Tyler, TX division, which had been operating for at least 17 years. I had planned to retire from EOG, but that decision changed everything. I was given the choice to relocate or be laid off. Because I could not afford the cost of moving, I was laid off, which had a significant negative impact on my life. It took me more than two years to find another job in the oil and gas industry in Tyler, TX.
