Pros

Great career growth and management. You never get bored. You change jobs frequently, about once every 3 years. Salary was incredible. Mine increased over 20X from start to finish.

Cons

bureaucracy. Ranking system. Culture. Very tough environment during industry downturns especially for those who graduated top in their University class but find themselves low on the rank list. You live in fear of termination.

Smoke and Mirrors

Pros

Pay is competitive, initial benefits.

Cons

ExxonMobil built up a wonderful benefits package to attract talent and has slowly started to pull the benefits out from under employees. While I’ve personally ranked high, I’ve watched highly talented, high performing introverts sink and even be asked to leave because of their inability to “fit in”. This is not the place for introverts. Management sold the new ranking system as a positive, then used it to turn around and reduce headcount. Exxon relies heavily on brand recognition and the company is now losing top quintile people because that’s simply not enough to retain talented individuals. The people make the company and Exxon’s undervaluing of employees has continued to show in their being out performed by their competitors on stock value, process safety, personnel safety and employee satisfaction. There are hard times ahead without big changes at every level of leadership.
