Pros

Safe, environmental friendly and socially responsible company to work with Good knowledge sharing Good global initiatives

Organziation is too huge to change. Very political. People get promoted because of politically ties, rather than value contribution. Very explicit mistakes can be covered up, because of political ties. Not market oriented enough.
