Pros

Base salary is great. Bonus competitive amongst the majors. Typically care about employees quite well. If you work in smaller teams, the experience is really rewarding both in relationships and accomplishments.

Cons

Unfortunately they give too much of the industry expected production engineering roles and responsibilities to a separate "wells" function. You don't get rig responsibilities at all so you get a neutered experience which makes you less competitive within the industry.

Pros

It pays the bills Home work

Cons

The ceo wael has one goal. A big payout for him and the board. The focus for him is: # Cut costs as the consequences take time to show and he'll jump ship before hand. Similar to the Peter Voser era # Forgetting the environment, as oil is highly profitable #Cut staff whilst telling those remaining they have to work harder without extra pay to increase profits and keep pay rises below inflation #promote woman to hit D and I targets even if they are inexpw # Move jobs offshore to India, Poland and The Philippines where Labour is cheaper and they have very few employment protections # Promote the loudest and most aggressive people to managers # Down grade job requirements and put in junior staff who don't have the experience # Pay VP and above extremly well to keep the old boy network happy # Make staff fly economy but don't sell off the three corporate jets for the board and VPs
