Pros

-Superb benefits -Excellent educational opportunities -Corporate locations have sleek and modern interiors -Collaborative work; Shift to Agility and Scrums; Entrepreneurial and meritocracy mindsets

Cons

-Easy to 'get lost' in the masses. Type 'A' personalities will enjoy success here. -Promotions are hard to obtain. Ceilings can come quick. Jobs are highly competitive and circumventing internal openings can be complex. Performance ratings too subjective. -Organization is too complex. Often no clear distinctions on job responsibilities between functions/businesses. -Decisions are often by 'committee' and things can take time. -Plenty of 'finger pointing' when things do not go right. -Diversity programs seem to focus on certain groups over others (even to the point where it gets highly political)

Pros

you'll learn what not to do in your career that comes after

Cons

They are complete hypocrites regarding 'Values and behaviours'. US is ruled from England. Leaders in US are disrespectful and do nothing. If you are self serving, selfish manager wannabe, BP is right for you, and they love young, stupid or cheap. They talk the talk all day, don't walk the walk. Culture hasn't changed since Deep Water Horizon, Texas City, etc. Same dumb outsourcing strategies never end. Phony new goals are the same thin veil - digitize and zero carbon.

Pros

-The benefits -Facilities in Houston -There are some really good people doing the work, but the folks making the calls at the top ruin it all around.

Cons

- Integrity is a joke. One of the most corrupt companies on earth. - Profits before doing the right thing, each and every time. - Toxic environment all around. It's all about money no matter what the corporate governance says about the " BP Values". Do not believe it. They will use and abuse you and let you go before having to truly award you for getting after it and working hard to make a difference. They just don't care.
