Pros

multiple commodities, large long life deposits, money spent hand over fist to develop up and coming opportunities. Highly profitable and great learning ground.

Cons

Company is very concerned with risk; has not make an aggressive acquisition in quite some time, shale gas being the one meager exception. Lots of systems that leave not scope for employee initiative. Absolutly no consideration for people and employees, turn over in professional roles is very high. "leave your brain at teh gate" mentality fostered by multitude of procedures and systems.

Pros

Some good co-workers and good challenges

Cons

Leadership in the Tucson office is highly political and unprofessional. Feedback is not given directly. Local leadership is more interested in Linkedin posting and image, rather than anything of substance.
