Pros

They have great benefits and a strong family orientation. There's plenty of opportunities for "go get 'em" types. The family culture is hard to beat in the refineries, but only if you fit in.

Cons

Limited feed back and opportunities for steady performers. If you're not looking to be the CFO, you're treated poorly and opprtunities go away. Communication on important, but not "secret" issues is non-existent.
