Pros

It's ok to learn more about the energy industry. However, there are much better places to do that.

Cons

Lot of people leaving the company (From Manager level and below). Directors / VPs stay forever. It is a Management Consulting "wanna be" Far away from Tier 1 and 2 Firms The Bonus scheme is a "Black Box" It does not have a meritocratic culture Career opportunities are very restricted

Pros

Culture of personal respect and courtesy, benefits, decent distribution of age groups across the employee population, smart people. Challenging and interesting work.

Cons

Run like a university, not a business. The "Deans" with long tenure and established relationships have created silos and cliques that will be difficult but necessary to break down to continue growth at the pace we would like to see. Technology treated as a cost center instead of a business necessity; pay below industry averages in the US market. Too much value for form over function.

If you are lucky, your friends will think you work for McKinsey & Company. Don't explain too much or you will disappoint them.

Cons

Old school mindset Low salaries Nobody understands how promotions are made Poor leadership Lack of diversity in senior management Scottish Club style Poor policies and not even followed Unprofessional
