Pros

Potential for good work / life balance. Depending on senior and middle management, BP has the facilities to create a work environment that is healthy and which allows individuals to grow, add value to the business and progress their careers.

Cons

Large company bureaucracy can make affecting change cumbersome. Senior management can become out-of-touch with the real life issues on the "front". This requires a strong middle management layer to defend the business requirements and motivate their employees to ensure that over-arching strategies are not counterproductive.

Good Opportunity but politics and people pleasing can be exhausting.

Pros

BP is very active at developing its people. They provided lots of good opportunities. People make the place enjoyable. My team had a great handle on work/life balance, not all teams did.

Cons

Politics are very important there and everyone in leadership seems to need to give the "ok" before a project can move forward. BP seems paralyzed by past mistakes and their desire for extensive analysis.
