Pros

- You learn how different companies operate, how they generate cash, and what makes them risky or stable. - This builds commercial awareness that’s valuable long-term

Cons

- Promotions often depend on seniority rather than performance. - Many teams have limited upward mobility because the structure is flat. - You can stay in the same level for years unless someone leaves- Because promotions are slow, managers sometimes choose based on personal preference rather than merit. - This can create frustration, resentment, and a sense of stagnation.

Pros

Great safety culture, generally good teams, lots of options if you are willing to relocate.

Cons

Best to keep your morals and standings to yourself. Had to leave because due to so much DEI being forced down our necks.
