Just another huge company

Staff geologist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Overtime pay (straight pay), flexible work schedule when not in field, benefits aren’t terrible but much worse than public sector or tech companies. Most interactions with projects is through your manager.

Cons

the only way to get recognition or a raise is to threaten to quit. Management would rather punish lower level employees for not being billable than to work with them and encourage sharing hours.

Top heavy organization, ample field work

Geologist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There is generally plenty of work available for those who are able to complete tasks competently and within budgets. Straight overtime is greatly appreciated especially by staff with heavy field requirements. Large organization provides the possibility of transferring and working on a variety of projects. Strong compensation and benefits for the industry.

Cons

Very limited mentorship structure. Without an advanced degree it is difficult to be allowed to work on more technical job tasks. Many entry-level employees face heavy travel requirements (>75%). Can be difficult to move between projects as offices are often 'silos'. Such a large organization that there is little staff cohesion or sense of teamwork.
