Pros

Lots of different job experiences and opportunities for personal development. They have good training programs and you can move into areas of great responsibility without a lot of prior work experience. Very good pay, work life balance in most positions and great benefits.

Cons

Company is very regimented but not as stuffy as its reputation. There is a company process for everything and not open to variance. Management holds all the cards, a lot of things are done in secrecy and you depend on your manager to be your advocate. Opportunities are created for those deemed to be stars. Everybody else has to make their own way.

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.
