Pros

Opportunities for International work, training and advancement opportunities for new graduates, average benefits. Strong safety culture.

Cons

Future of company is uncertain given global commodity pricing swings, foreign competition, and management issues. Fewer opportunities than before for growth and mobility within the company partly due to company's heavy emphasis on diversity advancement. Personal performance is graded more on perception and quota system rather than actual effort and accomplishments.
