Pros

The importance of Work life balance. There are lots of trainings to help the employee improve both on personal and professional aspect

Cons

Position upgrade may take years. Employee are ranked based on colleagues' performance. It's not enough that you're doing well. You need to be competitive to outshine others.

Pros

Excellent benefits; strong leadership team; good work life balance; focus on inclusion and respect for people; actively engages with media and stakeholders about energy challenges; credible and down to earth CEO

Cons

Decisions can take a long time to be made; you need to know how to network to be successful; engagement surveys show a reluctance to speak up and challenge current thinking - this isn't something I have experienced.
