Such a high attrition rate....it's ridiculous.

Pros

Training and development are at a self taught pace. Most people are willing to help you get the technical answers you need.

Cons

When you get a written offer....it's just that. They can change it on you in a heartbeat. Overtime is not guaranteed so be ready to live off just the base salary.

Pros

The money, training and opportunity for advancement is very good, if you can get out of the field.

Cons

You work 24 hours, live on a rig, sleep very little, and never know when you will have a day off. When you do have a day off, you are afraid whenever your phone rings, because you might have to pack up and go to a job for an unknown amount of time, usually 1 month...might be 3. 24 hours, no weekends, no holidays.
