Pros

pension, 401k match is 8% for putting in 2%, salary competitive with market, full relocation packages

Cons

Management only interested in self preservation and "checking boxes" for their careers, they are not vested in long term sustainability. The company prides itself on hiring diverse candidates, but is oblivious as to whether a minority is the right fit for the job. Promotions are not fairly determined. People with no experience in a particular area get promoted to positions based on their relationship with a manager, irregardless of qualifications.

Pros

Good salaries and benefits. Great people to work with. Very broad and international experience, with the potential to live abroad.

Cons

When price of oil is low, there are no more career opportunity, you "should just be happy to have a job". No more expat positions. You can only move to midland, tx. No more pay rise. Very low morale within the company and no career perspective.

Pros

Good when oil is expensive. Friendly people, safer operations compared to other companies in industry, good pay and benefits.

Cons

Terrible when oil is cheap. You hear about layoffs every day, ten times a day, you barely hear about anything but layoffs. Layoffs in business unites, layoffs in corporate units. Layoffs in October, layoffs in April, more layoffs coming in the fall. The only question is when do they stop offering severance packages. The company is gradually getting rid of everything related to the actual oil business and becoming a financial institution managing risk and assets.
