Good place to get your foot in oil industry

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
It’s a good place to get your feet wet in the oil and gas industry. They will get you all your certifications you need and then some. Decent benefits and pay.

Worst Place Ever

The company itself is impressive, but the management leaves much to be desired. They fail to acknowledge the hard work and dedication employees put into the company.When it comes to perks and annual salary increments, they are exclusively reserved for Saudi nationals. As an expatriate, one should not anticipate receiving any such benefits.

great place to work

great place to learn diffferent aspects of oil field work. management pretty good. long hours but good work. raises arent based on performance. so you have to negotiate quite a bit. make sure you keep track of all your accomplishments and achievements for when its time to negotiate raise.

No longer employed there

10 years of service to this company only to get fired and treated like a expendable employee after being loyal and trustworthy ! 4 years of doing supervisor duties and not getting paid or promoted for any of my services

Thumbs down

Not organized. Unhappy employees and unprofessional. Overall it wasn't the best experience. Gossip, unhealthy environment. Hopefully Weatherford has had mass improvements

In Huntsville it wasn’t a good experience and no one there knows what they are doing nor do they even care as long as they in the right camp

What is the best part of working at the company?Best part was before I worked at the Huntsville plantWhat is the most stressful part about working at the company?Never knowing who your boss was going to be week over week What is the work environment and culture like at the company?It was clickish, it was who you knew and who you strokedWhat is a typical day like for you at the company?All day every day political and drama filled

lots of work and no overtime pay.

Horrible Management, you ask for help from HR and they let you go. No matter how many years you work for them. You are just a number; they don't care about your hard work. If a manager doesn't like you, he will make up lies to get you fired. Don't ever speak about injustices, they will let you go. You also are forced to work for free, because they don't want to pay you overtime, but they expect you to finish your work in 8 hours.

Pros

Nice coworkers

Cons

Horrible Management

Decent place to work

Weatherford is a decent place to work and overall, I was satisfied with my time there. The management of the company has changed some, creating some positives and some negatives.

Not the worst company to work for, but be sure to know exactly what you're signing up for before taking the job.

The hiring process is incredibly slow (a month to get hired on), little to no training in some departments, a lot of favoritism and work assignment overload on certain employees. There is some PTO but if you need a day for personal reasons you will be putting up a fight for a day off. Managment does not care about their employees you're just another number in the system.

Pros

Benefits, Pto, salary wages

Cons

Pick and choose raises for employees, managment, workload, flexibility

This company was a joke

If you weren't family you didn't belong, if you didn't drink and drive you didn't belong , if you stated your opinion you didn't belong. Safety was for the birds pay raises were for family only and DOT rules hahaha yeah right not!!

Pros

None

Cons

The company

Poor

What I had seen there is a total opposite of what you would expect from an actual business model in this industry and it is not a good idea to be a business that is not a good fit for a company that is not in the market to do business in this industry

Overall very poor. Have had 4 managers and basically no real review or serious discussion about goals, KPI’s, opportunities, accomplishments.

What is the best part of working at the company?Regular pay check received as expected What is the most stressful part about working at the company?No leadership, direction, employee engagementWhat is the work environment and culture like at the company?There is no culture, it’s non-existent. Just expect to work by yourself, train yourself and work to your expectations What is a typical day like for you at the company?It’s isolated and non-communicative. You have your job and you just try to figure out how to do it and guess at expectations
