Pros

Tough but good work, Many good people, most in the upper levels of capability in their field Good compensation package if you include the defined benefits pension - not sure it will stay though Demanding on employees but provide substantial support in the event of serious illness or injury

Cons

Woke leftist mindset is getting into corporate structure, many people fear speaking openly about sometimes even everyday topics Regular hours far in excess of 40/wk if you are to achieve even modest success. "Work life balance" is promoted, until it is not. You almost have to be geographically mobile to advance in career.

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.
