Pros

Good pay and benefits - sometimes better than some of the tech companies. But not sure how long it’ll last Ability to rotate to different positions so you’re always learning. You don’t get that in other companies Get to work with some intelligent and interesting people

Cons

If you’re not a UT Austin or Texas A&M grad, you shouldn’t be there. If you’re not a stodgy old white dude, you shouldn’t be there The performance review process is the old GE forced ranking process. Although they claimed to get rid of it in 2020, the current system just goes by a different moniker but really same thing. Middle management doesn’t know how to stand up to high level managers. So the the top management is essentially divorced from the reality that is ExxonMobil.

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.
