      Organization still struggling and very much in flux after 2010 Gulf of Mexico disaster.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good work life balance. Excellent compensation and benefits. Strong functional/technical communities of practice. Wide range of opportunities associated with large organization. Excellent acceptance of diverse cultures.

      Cons

      Poor Leadership, poor ability to define, plan and achieve strong business delivery. Organization has herd mentality, fails to identify key issues and gets lost in details. A small power group controls messages and fails to take advantage of the strength of the organization. Over reliance on official processes over common sense. Over reliance on a global assurance model over local expertise.

      Decent employer

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Friendly onboard atmosphere. Good salary and bonus. Great leave ratio. Reliefs usually on time. Exceptional training and development program. Positive culture. Opportunities to move into a shore based role for those wishing to move ashore.

      Cons

      Promotion appears to be more by seniority than meritocracy. There is a formal promotion structure but after achieving this promotion, for junior ranks at least, is either by being in the right place at the right time or having reached the top of the queue.
