Pros

No better place to embrace an "across the value chain" learning and exposure in the energy industry. Great bunch of people across cultures and locations that you could ever work with.

Cons

Despite their size, have become a complex bureaucracy. Perhaps grown too fast too quick and as a result have too many layers and yet not enough career progression.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
