Pros

Good salaries and benefits. Prestige of working for a supermajor in Oil & Gas industry. Continual job opportunities all over the world.

Cons

Nobody is empowered to make a decision. A lot of talk, but little or no action. Each project either remains uncompleted or takes a left turn. Excellent strategy, but little execution.

Pros

BP is a company that champions diversity and inclusion. If you are a very high performance employee, you may find promotions come easily. It is a fast paced company where there are many opportunities to challenge yourself. The commitment of employees to work safely is unparalleled.

Cons

The expectations of management are not always realistic. This very often leads to an unsustainable work load, sometimes with less that desirable outcomes. While attempts to develop a safety culture are done with good intentions, the methods to achieve safety are typically personnel intensive processes, without the addition of the required (trained) personnel to carry out the process. The net result is typically not positive.
