Pros

Great exposure and excellent benefits.

Cons

Difficult to move internally in Singapore office as chances is always given to expatriates. Even if an existing employee is equipped with similar experiences, somehow the HR VP approved to source externally for the best fit. Promote or transfer an individual with no substance but excel in public relation.

Pros

Good salary and highest bonus % you will find in O&G. $2 lunch is awesome. Growing company with deep pockets to continue acquiring other companies.

Cons

Unsubstantiated rumor mill that management listens to and usually buys into and has ended up burning many people. Management does not stick up for their employees if it involves putting their neck out in any way. Very Big Brother-ish...monitor your comings and goings and computer usage even just moving files around. Many people have their work computer AND a personal laptop or Ipad to skirt being monitored. Very tight when it comes to expenses, unless you are in engineering. Company does a terrible job of growing organically due to what I perceived as underperformance in the exploration group, so luckily they have enough money coming in to grow through acquisition.
