It was an amazing place to be at, but bad investments and poor planning have caused some serious pains
Pros
Great company, incredible benefits and salary. The current C-suite team are forward thinkers and better than the last executive team. Colleagues are great and one can avoid the bureaucracy for a long while building a career here. BHPB is truly a marketing company that happens to be in the mining/oil and gas industries and cares about its image and the areas it works.
Cons
Majority of middle management is disconnected and only prefer to manage above than below. The management group cover the full spectrum of either great or bad. Uncommitted or overbearing. I'd say professionalism is a strong trait, but only on the senior manager and above group. It's unlikely to join the management track in the next few years due to market issues. This is a place that says that they want superstars, but they really want automatons. BHPB is truly a marketing company that engages in mining/oil and gas industries and is willing to spend fortunes to make their presence known and sometimes without regard to financial prudence or awareness to market occurences.
