Pros

Able to get resume building exposure to global work in a many arenas. Best time is years 1-3 and then get out and move on. No longer a career staying place.

Cons

Too many redundant processes, inability to make a quick decision without multiple layers of approval, sunflower mid level worthless management, cut the 401k match, low employee morale, tone deaf upper management, incompetent CEO, no longer nimble or able to react quickly to market, HUGE lack of foresight on management forward thinking and planning that began in 2010 and lead to the catastrophe being experienced today, heavy emphasis on moving US jobs overseas to lower cost business centers - no America first here - chasing the almighty dollar to the detriment of company - management seems to have forgotten core business is to find, extract, process and deliver oil products and overburdened themselves with needless "rules/processes" that add little no no value.

Pros

Good pay and a pension

Cons

Everything else. Benefits are lackluster, Flex Your Day policies are elusive. The company changes everything all the time so that a large portion of your time is spent finding new links to things on the portal, figuring out who to contact in various departments and in what country just to get a simple answer to a question. No one stays in the same role long enough to get good at their job. Morale is terrible.
