Great Pay and Learning Opportunities, But Constant Organizational Changes

Integrity engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Top-notch pay and benefits, specifically the 401k structure (6% match plus a 5% company contribution). The team consists of hardworking, great people, and the diverse operations (oil, gas, produced water) offer significant learning opportunities in the asset integrity world.

Cons

he company is still figuring things out post-spin-off from Oxy, leading to constant changes in the operations organization. Teams run lean, so you will wear many hats. There is also lingering uncertainty regarding whether the company will expand or sell to a larger midstream operator.
