Pros

It's a pay check to put food on the table. There are no other pros unless you live close to the job and have a 5 minute commute.

Cons

Insurance is almost 500 dollars a month for employee+ family and it doesn't cover anything. They have the lowest grade plan with BCBS. That was verbatim from a BCBS rep. Pay is 10 dollars an hour behind market standard on the lowest end. Hard work and loyalty are not rewarded. I went 2 years with not even a cost of living raise even with exceptional evaluation. You are penalized if you use the open door policy. Management hold raises to further line their own pocket. If you are management u get big bonuses when budgets are met. Promote people that have no clue about the job and over look others that have 10+ years experience and are top performers. There's a reason Oneok can't keep top tier people. They want people who haven't a clue and will work for the cheapest. I've seen it time and time again. DO NOT BELIEVE ANY 5 STAR REVIEWS. I worked for them for 7 years and have seen the inside working first hand. Management is horrible. The 5 star and 4 star reviews were not put up there until I brought this site to their attention when I show them the 2 star rating they had from their employees. Shortly after, those reviews magically poped up. They are not anything like any other oil and gas company. Oneok does not appreciate their employees period. The one person is soo right about market based pay. IT'S A SCAM. Somehow the market never changes and your always right where you should be according to Oneok.

Pros

Great Company, Good benefits, 401k match and profit sharing. Management throughout the company is typically pretty good. I've heard of bad apples but haven't seen that myself.

Cons

Health insurance could be better
