Pros

Pay and benefit are one of the best, 401k and/plus pension plan. Work is not back breaking, very relax, no pressure. Fun to work. Lots of overtime. Management care for everyone's safety, safety being their first priority then our environment. No slowdown or employee lay-off. Lay-off is a word that is not in their vocabulary. A lot of employee give aways, gifts and rewards for being safe, quarterly luncheons and off-site team building get together. They provide yearly supply of work uniforms. I don't need to buy my own work clothes, yearly supply of work boots. I can order any hand tools, power tools, measuring tools and equipment that I need for the job. Regular supplies of coffee, creamer, drinking bottled water, refreshing gatorade soda cans all year round especcially during the summer.

Cons

I started working when I was 15 years old for a lot of small and big companies and I CAN NOT THINK OF ANY DOWNSIDES OF WORKING FOR EXXONMOBIL. Like any other companies they are not perfect and these are not considered downside of working at Exxonmobil

Too many levels of management approval needed to move forward. Very slow paced decision making. Checklist for everything. Not inovative.

Pros

If you want to die at early age, XOM will be your top choice. Good benefits and salary without bonus. You can get some safety bucks and some free lunch if you are in research and development department.

Cons

None if you like to work harder than others. The company has force ranking system. Feedbacks from high level engineers are very subjective. In the ranking season, everyone is trying to show off in meeting. It is always the best strategy that you brining up very simple data and draw a straight line that can easily understood by the management and most of the audience. There is no 9/80 schedule and everyone works at least nine hours to impress their boss.
