Pros

-You work on a two week, rotating schedule, so you get two weeks off at a time -No real dress code -Some leeway in how you approach daily tasks

Cons

-You're away from home more than half the year when you factor in travel time -BP does not cover flights from your home city to Anchorage (though the flight from Anchorage to Prudhoe Bay is covered), so you're stuck paying for that out of pocket, meaning your actual salary drops significantly once that's factored in -BP is extremely unorganized, and as a company, has no idea on how to run an effective business -Management is kind of a joke -Lots of "busy work" which serves no real purpose -Salaries are not reviewed annually, as they should be
