      Pros

      Well, my paycheck never bounced. I got to work with some great people. I was trusted to make decisions on my own.

      Cons

      Pay was low for the experience level. Benefits seem to get worse every year. No one is replaced after retirement, just make those that remain do more.

      Pros

      The company is progressive in terms of products and renewable energy generation. At some point I can see NRG monopolizing the energy industry.

      Cons

      Pay is completely insufficient. Experience doesn't matter so much in terms of advancement ...internally it's more likely who you know. It's easy to get pigeonholed in a position.

      Pros

      There are hardly any good things about NRG Well Stimulation in Tomball, TX. The only good thing is when and if you make it to your assigned days off!

      Cons

      This company does its best to have the "what they call" management try to intimidate, threaten, and belittle all shop employees! I have never worked at a company that treats its employees so bad on a daily basis.
