Pros

Interesting work with very smart colleagues, Many opportunities to travel and/or take expat assignments. Stellar benefits including 401k match of 8% + pension + RSUs. Better DEI than most companies due to international workforce.

Cons

Most jobs are high workload and high stress, leading to poor health and zero work/life balance. 90% of managers are superb, but the other 10% make life hellish. Few opportunities to advance and layoffs occur every few years when oil prices tank. Base comp and cliff vesting for RSUs is not competitive.
