Good Place to Start

Field engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Really great people to work with who are highly motivated and very helpful. Company invests a lot of time and money to train you for the job and doesn't assign you an actual area of responsibility until after several months of training and shadowing another field engineer. Pay and benefits are good as is workplace and work time flexibility.

Cons

Company does not readily embrace new technology and ExxonMobil IT makes it difficult to get things done. Computers that are provided are slow and cumbersome to use as they are heavily restricted and controlled by IT. There is a process for everything and lots and lots of paperwork. Often it feels as if they don't really care if the job gets done as long as the paperwork is in order.

A great place to be from

Attorney

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A great to place to get your first 2-5-10 years of experience, stellar quality of people, ethical, knowledgeable superviosrs, abundance of in-house knowledge and expertise in every area of the law and great willingness to mentor. In all, a perfect environement to learn proper client interaction etiquette and hone legal skills. A very professional atmosphere and a lot of autonomy early on in your career.

Cons

Plan on working 60+ hour weeks, with work days stretching across global time zones. Lots of lateral movement and cross-training with few opportunities for upward movement. Couple that with zero bonuses and modest, mostly inflation-based raises.
