Pros

Delivers vital resources in an ethical way. Good work-life balance in an aging energy industry. Ability to work throughout the world in complex and dynamic environments on impactful projects. People in the company generally truly care about each other and the welfare of the employees at large.

Cons

Promotions and upward mobility are primarily driven by time in company or industry with little regard to personal capability trumping experience. During commodity price downturns, interoffice scare and rumors fly. Direct, honest, and measurable feedback was not given during all performance reviews (supervisor specific). Consequences for high performers and low performers were not delivered or followed through.
