It's okay for business

Sales executive

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits, Experience, great opportunities to learn business negotiations and problem solving techniques. Sales allow for lots of travel, with good expense support. If one does not mind regimantaton, this is a great place to be. It pernits access to businesses of all shapes and sizes, especially when in a psn of sales solicitation

Cons

Large bureacracy w/ relatively little flexibility and large amount of conytol processes. The company is great for assigning the first two entry positions, but then after that it's extremely difficult to move on, even when rated especially high. It's a great place to work for 5-6 years, then it's importsnt to consider other companies.

Exxon is a great place to work if you can manage your expectations.

Senior technical associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Corporate training center is on our campus which presents the opportunity to learn as much as you want to. The work environment is very university-like, taking time to think, read, research is encouraged.

Cons

The corporate culture is stiff, not very warm and fuzzy. Exxon prides itself on being very methodical with a long time frame for success. This can be frustrating for those who like a more dynamic environment. Technical staff, the lab workers, do the heavy lifting but are not on the radar screen as far as management is concerned.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay with great opportunities for advancement. Many high levels positions will be left vacant in the coming years as the Baby Boomer generation retires, making them available for those of us moving up in the company. Supervisors have always been great about allowing leave to take care of personal matters.

Cons

Travel requirements for high level advancement (although undertsandable) can put a strain on family life. This is especially hard if your spouse has a good career in a different industry. Depending on where you are located and the assignment you are in it can be tough to be noticed by people higher up in the company because it is so large. This really forces you to try and come up with new innnovative ways to accomplish things and get that recignition most people are looking for.
