Pros

Compensation and benefits are probably the best reasons to work for Exxon. It is a company that takes things in a very process-oriented fashion, slow and steady, and you are encouraged to do your homework before pursuing an idea.

Cons

Beauracracy - too much paperwork, hoops, etc. Maybe this is expected from most big companies, but sometimes it seems that it impedes your ability to work.

Pros

Job stability. EMC is set up with focused investment and growth plans - these dont change regardless of economic uncertainty. In short, the company doesnt over-react. Recruitment today still continues globally. Multi approach for career advancement by exposing individuals to multiple business units and functions throughout the career. One rarely dwells in a job for more than 5 years. Ie. Many ladders to climb, not just the one in your unit.

Cons

The overall remuneration package is deliberately pegged at 50% to a basket of 10 to 12 companies. A known fact, at least in this part of Asia. EMC is good at attracting new hires, but struggles with retaining them.

Pros

The company is well known - it's the largest publicly traded company in the world. The name carries a lot of weight to other potential employers.

Cons

Company culture is very rigid, it's a good ol' boys network. It never was about what you know, it's about who you know...company is lacking in diversity.
