BHP is a company with strong intergrity and character. Very good company to work for in many aspects.

Pros

Excellent remuneration and employee benefits. Some wonderful and very talented people in all departments.

Cons

Incredibly political. Too many 'empire builders' in management positions who should never be in charge of people. They are given free range to make their direct reports miserable. While there are official processes in place to report this sort of thing most people know that the repercussions of reporting incidents of bullying etc by management will be harsh. The last 7 years that I was there the company had formed a 'cult' type mentality where you basically were not encouraged to use your own initiative or even to think for yourself lest it be outside of the 'BHP Billiton way'.
