Business Outlook
Pros
-Tons of work opportunities, especially early in your career. Can take some time as a young engineer to find where you fit best and land there. -Culture is great, and the people are as well. -9/80 schedule is great (every other Friday off, working 9 hours per day every other day). Essentially its ~20 days of vacation each year in addition to the vacation package you already have.
Cons
-Typical big company cons: slow turnaround for decisions, bureaucracy, etc. -Sometimes the company tends to ride the oil industry roller-coaster more than most. When things are good, they're great, but when something happens (ex. Gulf Spill), things may get prohibitively expensive, hard to do, etc.
