      Pros

      -good pay and benefits (though quickly changing in 2020) -lots of opportunities for different positions globally

      Cons

      -strict top-down management style, contrasting opinions are punished -will sell you on your value to the company before eroding benefits, job security to maintain dividend for shareholders -continually tries to indoctrinate employees on propaganda when they are clearly PR stunts

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great peer network within the company. Training opportunities both within XOM and outside training. XOM experience is considered good by other companies. Good opportunities for advancement (if you get very good performance reviews). Many opportunities for travel and purse strings are loose.

      Cons

      Advancement at XOM is based on performance ranking, and the ranking system can be influenced by how well your supervisor is respected (e.g. company politics). High rank means good raises, middle rank means very mediocre raises, low rank means ~1% raises or none. An employee's potential for management is decided very early. Those targeted as future managers are quickly advanced through key positions (assumng they don't crash/burn). Downside is those who don't get chosen typically don't advance very far. XOM is focused on grooming the next decades management as much as paying shareholders. Not much else matters.
