Pros

The workplace is super friendly. I love that employees can form committees. There are tons of them, and they're actively promoted in the company newsletter. Even if you're not a member, you're welcome to join their events – it's a great way to meet people. Speaking of professional growth, there are plenty of opportunities here. If you're willing to put in the effort, you'll probably be recognized. People typically switch roles every two years, so if you're hired for an XY position, you'll likely move into a different role eventually. This is a great way to develop additional skills and gain experience, but it can also be a bad thing depending on your perspective. Personally, I like it. They always consider your preferences anyways, so it's a great way to target more challenging roles that you might have a hard time getting as an external hire.

Cons

I know some folks are grumbling about the ranking system. Based on a performance assessment you're ranked against your colleagues. Only you and your supervisor know where you stand. But it does affect stuff like raises and promotions. Another thing people aren't too happy about is Exxon's lack of flexibility when it comes to working from home. Indeed we don't have a hybrid setup. You can ask your supervisor to work from home if you need to on a given day. As long as you're not asking every Friday or something, they'll usually approve. The downside is that it really depends on your sup. This creates some inequalities and it would be great if the company would find a way to mitigate this problem.
