After 23 years working for a UK major my advice would be..........DON'T
If you don't want to be treated like something you've stepped in, give it a wide birth.
Don't get me wrong, I love my job. BUT all the $HIT that goes with it is hard to take sometimes...And its never ending.
Our management generally are poor engineers who become poorer managers! And because they no longer work in the cold, hot, rain, snow, 30 feet in the air on a cherry picker in 40 kt winds, nights, weekends they think that they are better than us.......
Why dont you look into IM or IT or whatever....
BUT...IT IS BRILLIANT!
