Pros

Global company so issues and career opportunities across the world. Some really interesting issues. Good benefits including stock purchase, 401K and defined benefit pension plan.Quality of people in the company generally very high. Good people to work with and a culture of being pleasant, supportive. The "General Interest" is a real concept.

Cons

Lots of process, can be frustrating. HR generally unhelpful -- they will e-mail you a paragraph from the policy manual instead of giving a personalized answer to your question.

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.
