Pros

The company is a global energy major, giving employees exposure to international standards, systems, and career pathways. Reasonable work-life balance.

Cons

Compensation is not always be competitive, infationary increases. Bureaucracy & slow decision-making. The company hires expats in senior positions without intergating them to South African culture, often resulting in multiple cultures in one company. Limited promotion prospects and career development.
