      Pros

      Engineers compensated better than average. Houston office is building a new expensive building to be used for... Management career path climbs ladder quickly.

      Cons

      International travel for work is overly complicated. Oppressive culture discourages new ideas or challenging poor decisions by management. Safety mentality is totally a CYA system. Your US job may be replaced by someone from another country at any time. Mining jobs are even more at risk.

      Pros

      Above average remuneration. Incredible opportunities for professionals to develop and learn. Mobility options offer diversity of experience and flexibility. The money available to spend on learning, recognition, team building etc. is well above the norm. The complexity of the organization provides many avenues and opportunities for career advancement. Understanding of the importance of safety.

      Cons

      Cynical and greedy attitude of employees. Employees may be tainted as being an underperformer never to recover their reputation. There is a lack of balance encouraged so that people have a life outside work, due to high remuneration. Bureaucratic and prone to making big decisions and implementing systems and processes at great expense, only to change it 12 months later. Commitment to safety can sometimes become a little grey when production is down and June 30 looming. Shareholder satisfaction is ALWAYS of higher priority than employees. There are many 'leaks' that mean decisions that should be confidential are seen coming by employees well before something official is communicated. Often the void of transparent communication leads to high dissatisfaction and healthy cynicism.
