Pros

Great benefits including bonus, stock purchase, employee clubs and network groups... with top of the totem pole feels. This company really cares about SAFETY as well as its employees. Employees are rather well taken care of and consist of a diverse group as its operations are all over the world.

Cons

Extreme glass ceiling syndrome, no way will you become the next big wig unless you are Dutch gentlemen. Oil industry is hit particularly hard over the last few years, and it shows. Most coworkers work in constant fear of losing their jobs.

Pros

The graduate program first rotation was really exciting. It was fun to work for a big company.

Cons

The managers didn't have a lot of insight to the program so you kind of have to figure it out yourself.
