Pros

Joined after the Deepwater Horizon accident. BP is making great strides to change the way things are done - kudos to all those contributing to the process. A lot of new people being brought in from other energy companies -- lots pof growth opportunities.

Cons

With growth changes across the company, process improvements are likely to take a few years to see the benefits. Leadership program needs to stress accountabilities at all levels. Talent retention will be challenging.

Large company, lots of training opportunities, great benefits and compensation, lots of opportunity in different areas so you can move around and find your niche, lots of responsibility

Cons

Lots of bureaucracy makes it difficult to get things done and very inefficient, so many initiatives and changes translates into lots of work in different areas

Pros

Stretches your personal and professional beliefs and limitations. Many opportunities for advancement and global relocation. Superior, and often, opportunity for in-house training and educational classes. Diverse organization

Cons

Can become just another number. Within BP, what seems as "average" capabilities would equal a rock-star status in other companies. Very siloed with people protecting their turf. Don't practice what they preach.
