ConocoPhillips reviews

Pay is not competitive, favoritism exists, IT leadership forgets that we support the oil and gas business .. they don’t value or reward those of us who have had more demanding BU facing roles more than those who just support corporate functions or infrastructure etc.

The culture can be kind of intense - performance above all else. It culturally operates like a super-major, without the staff resources to work this way. Lots of people report that there is too much work, not enough people to do it. If you're in a support role (i.e. not in engineering or something directly related to the business) it can be hard on career mobility, people don't leave, so there aren't very many options to move up.
