Pros

Energetic, motivated environment, technology based, strong support of petrotechnical people (larger salaries, technical communities, technical career, strong training and development), You determine how far you want to go with the company. If your ambitions are high and you have the material, the company will support you all the way - and gives you more and more (responsibilities, work, etc.) until the employee says stop.

Cons

Work-life balance suffers, it is now a big company that follows many interests (such as those from share holders),

1. Short notice when you are needed for the job. 2. Personnel not planned very well, which will makes you some sort of a tool to be used when needed. 3. Changing management team every 2 - 3 years which changes targets and your possible development (could be delayed or someone else got preferred)
