Pros

Pay is good..Lots of OT for wage guys.. Lazy mans paradise..Workers brag about not picking up a tool in weeks and are able to catch up on TV shows.. Just cry safety concerns and never be accountable..

Cons

Will never be productive..Hindered by ignorance and paranoia. They are constantly losing money and are non profitable due to over safety insecurities, Contractors and employees think its a complete joke and pride themselves on how much they don't work due to safety restrictions and manager ignorance. Productivity is about 2 hours out of a 10 hour day.. The worker just has to say we were safe and no one got hurt..Awesome job guys. Torrance will never get a clue

Pros

Great all around compensation - from salary, benefits (401k & pension & flexible work], medical [fantastic] Great people - at the company you understand everyone around is came from being one of the smartest people at their previous job/university. Within IT the overwhelming majority of people really care for you, this feels way more collaborative than competitive. Career Development - lots of opportunities to grow in breadth of experience to get deep in your skills and grow in leadership skills

Cons

Work Politics - being such a large corporation with a lot of history there is a tendency to be work politics/red tape sheerly because of the size of the company. However, it is not really bad if you are willing network , put yourself out there to talk with leaders, and be a normal hard-working enjoyable employee. If you do these two things you will succeed at ExxonMobil.
