Pros

Large company with good benefits. Access to large base of other sites worldwide for help in growing knowledge base.

Cons

They treat refineries like they aren't going to keep them. IE they don't spend money to keep things maintained as well as they could.

Pros

lots of challenging work, difficult issues, intellectually stimulating types of situations to work on

Cons

poor management; cost-cutting is driving everything at the moment; they talk the talk but can't seem to walk the walk. people are too afraid of repercussions to say what they really think. the environment is becoming a bit toxic.

Pros

Salary and benefits are top-notch. People are smart and mostly nice to work with. Location in Chicago is terrific.

Cons

No decisions are actually ever made in Chicago or by line management - all has to be agreed by staff groups in London. DOAs for local management are unclear and insignificant.
