Pros

Pay Experience Lots of young engineers (women too)

Cons

Culture - non degreed jobs can easily push responsibilities off to an engineer. You will be promoted or ranked high based of your social acceptance with people higher above you. The actual money you produce or save will not affect your ranking as much :(! Finger Pointing WEAK Execution of projects EMRE co-workers doing nothing profitable There is a ton of zero value work that is required

Pros

Great all around compensation - from salary, benefits (401k & pension & flexible work], medical [fantastic] Great people - at the company you understand everyone around is came from being one of the smartest people at their previous job/university. Within IT the overwhelming majority of people really care for you, this feels way more collaborative than competitive. Career Development - lots of opportunities to grow in breadth of experience to get deep in your skills and grow in leadership skills

Cons

Work Politics - being such a large corporation with a lot of history there is a tendency to be work politics/red tape sheerly because of the size of the company. However, it is not really bad if you are willing network , put yourself out there to talk with leaders, and be a normal hard-working enjoyable employee. If you do these two things you will succeed at ExxonMobil.
