Engineer for Oil & Gas
Mechanical Engineer • Current Employee
Houston, Texas, United States
November 18, 2015
Pros: Working with a great group of people, the amount I have learned while working directly with the older and experienced folks is invaluable.
Cons: Typical politics and bureaucracy of a corporate company.
I wish it was centered more around innovation, but it seems like the commercials on TV are the only things that truly encourage the imagination.
Upper management doesn't seem to care much about career development either. Trainings can only take you so far.
