Ventajas
Large Multinational companies offers a diverse working environment with interaction with people from all around the world. There are tremendous opportunities to shape your own career with whatever interests you may have. The job posting system we have shows opportunities you have from around the world. You are not pigeon holed into doing the same thing for 20 years.
Desventajas
As a white male, it is sometimes difficult to compete for jobs/promotions against minorities. There is a strong affirmative action program here, although it is informal. There is continued negative opinion of oil companies by the consuming public. While we have done a better job in telling our side of the story, there are too many cynics in the world to believe us.
