Pros

It is a very established company. Among the people that work there is a lot of knowledge and experience, so typically I was able to find answers whenever needed. Since it was a large company, there were lots of opportunities for advancement, whether it was at your current site, or a different site. There were well esablished career paths, whether you wanted to take a technical or management route.

Cons

The company was very conservative - sometimes it was hard if you have a good idea, but it may not come to fruition becase there may be a small amount of risk involved. The pay was okay, but there was no bonus, which is poor compared to other companies.

Pros

Great all around compensation - from salary, benefits (401k & pension & flexible work], medical [fantastic] Great people - at the company you understand everyone around is came from being one of the smartest people at their previous job/university. Within IT the overwhelming majority of people really care for you, this feels way more collaborative than competitive. Career Development - lots of opportunities to grow in breadth of experience to get deep in your skills and grow in leadership skills

Cons

Work Politics - being such a large corporation with a lot of history there is a tendency to be work politics/red tape sheerly because of the size of the company. However, it is not really bad if you are willing network , put yourself out there to talk with leaders, and be a normal hard-working enjoyable employee. If you do these two things you will succeed at ExxonMobil.
