Nabors Industries Employee Reviews

Pay was amazing, management tried but could have been better. I was expected to know all the software they use and how their tools worked within weeks with little training

Great place to work

Floorhand/Roughneck (Former Employee) - Moundsville, WV - September 11, 2023

The job is dangerous but that's why they pay what they pay. I loved every minute of it. From tripping pipe to running casing. It's a very physical job.

Pros

Great pay and benefits and decent perdium. They provide housing while on Tower

Cons

Eat when you can where you can. There is no break time or break schedule

Good pay

Floorhand/Roughneck (Former Employee) - Dominguez, CA - June 19, 2023

Good pay, hard work, not stable. Good experience if you wanna grow in the oilfield. Many diffrent places you could advance if your a fast learner. Dirty smelly wet work.

Its ok but on-call is horrible.

Network Engineer III (Current Employee) - Houston, TX - June 16, 2023

All in all its an ok company to work for but the on-call is atrocious. Instead of calling the helpdesk or e-mailing the whole team for help, when its your turn on-call everything goes to you. Depending on the week its very difficult to get your regular work done as well as being randomly pulled into an issue at any moment.
