Pros

BP previously provided excellent opportunities for international mobility. The downside was that there was no clear strategy for how to manage expats.

Cons

The lack of leadership at BP is evident over the past few years. An organization that once prided itself on being "progressive" has allowed itself to become stagnant as Senior Management shows more concern for staying in their post and less driving a strategy that once made BP the pride of the energy sector.

Pros

Benefits are better than most companies - great matching, HSA, pensions, and bonuses. The culture was great too, middle management was a pleasure to work with.

Cons

It’s easy to get stuck in one position if you’re a high performer. Seemed like if you’re good at your job you get stuck there while others get a lot more mobility. The options I had to move were all within the same sphere, great if you like what you are currently doing but not so much otherwise. Also, expect a re-org every 2-3yrs, change can be good but it was often disruptive during my tenure.
