I.T isn't too shabby cash wise once you get yourself some training under your belt. I've already increased my earnings a fair amount from when I started. I'm also lined up for a few training courses this year. Petrofac are pretty good for training. The Woodgroup apprentice scheme is also really good. I'm only mentioning them as I worked for Woodgroup for almost 2 years and I work at Petrofac now so have witnessed what goes on at each company. I've heard some good things about BP and Shell too.
Oil does provide a solid career and most of the skills are fairly transferable if you don't fancy it after a while. A lot of business (being managed from the UK) is beginning to crop up in South America, Dubai, India and also Russia. I very much doubt that the work will run out anytime soon.
