      Great people but still has a glass ceiling for women

      Pros

      I really enjoyed working with so many of the people at NOV. Benefits and PTO are good. Training opportunities have improved with on demand and in person training and the company will pay for education reimbursement. There are improvements in the works to improve consolidated reporting and transactions.

      Cons

      NOV is making some strides to improve opportunities for women but there is still work to be done - there are few women at the top level. Women are not paid the same as men for similar roles and often get overlooked for promotions in my personal experience and noting fro other colleagues. NOV is way behind in some aspects of technology and collaboration overall like taking so long to standardize processes across business segments and ledgers, but some departments are better than others. There are still siloed areas that limit progress. The internal changes have caused some customer services challenges.
