Pros

I really enjoy working at BP because they treat their people well. The work is enjoyable, the atmosphere is pleasant, and interaction with each other is encouraged. Personal wellness is stressed and I feel like at the end of the day, the company does care and will take care of you.

Cons

Like all big business, the bureaucratic aspects of the job can become overwhelming at times. It occasionally feels like there is so much process involved that it becomes difficult to sort through it all and actually do our jobs.

Pros

Good pay and benefits Work life balance is pretty decent depending on business unit/role Competitive work environment Industry leader despite pr

Cons

- the above Pro's relies heavily on what business unit you're in. IST/FVC/USPL are all embedded businesses where pay, 401k, tuition reimbursement GREATLY exceeds those at the "GBS". - every 2-3 years expect a re-org in your department w/ severance packages/layoffs - career progress can be really hit or miss ~ pretty easy to advance within department/function, branching out to different businesses or functions is a different story.

Pros

Great pay, benefits, and opportunities for development. The people I worked with were professional and valued my thoughts and opinions. Overall BP has a very good culture.

Cons

Some of BP's processes in their downstream segment are inefficient and can be frustrating, particularly their projects.
