Pros

Historically had senior managers with both deep knowledge and integrity, that has changed

Cons

Think of a career there as short-term. Take the knowledge you can, and figure out the good processes and take those and then move on. Nepotism trumps talent as well as heavy politics. It's not about who's the most qualified, but who's the most heavily networked. That environment does promote loyalty or long-term interest. Lots of global downsizing attributed to oil prices.

Pros

Supportive team environment with good learning opportunities and exposure to large-scale projects. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company offers strong brand recognition and career development resources.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow due to layers of management, and processes sometimes feel overly bureaucratic. Workload and priorities can shift quickly, which may create stress depending on the team.
