      Pros

      Alaska has some excellent people to work with. Experience the best technology D&M has and accordingly get paid higher than other US land employees. They'll hire you without any petroleum experience or education - good foot in the door. The job itself is engaging and satisfying.

      Cons

      Little work/life balance -work, work, work. New management restructuring puts a lot of pressure on field employees. Field Management changes every 2-3 years, so it is difficult to develop rapport with your supervisor.

      Pros

      Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

      Cons

      Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
