Pros

Pay, benefits, and the name ExxonMobil as your employer.

Cons

Exxon is being left behind by its rivals because they stifle their people internally. Extremely process driven and too complicated for simple work tasks. If you are not the golden boy get out before you invest too much time here. Good ole boy network is in high gear and going strong. They are not better than there rivals anymore and too caught up in the ExxonMobil machine to realize it.
