Pros

Good benefits including work/life balance. Great safety culture. Opportunities for advancement and other locations worldwide

Cons

Yearly review and raises are not necessarily based on performance. Forced ranking system means someone always has to be ranked on the bottom whether they earned it or not. Prone to constant re-organization, management changes which creates an unstable work environment and loss of focus, continuity and delivery.

Pros

-BP has some of the best assets to work on. -You can move to different projects / locations every 3 years. -Base salary seems competitive. -You have access to many senior technical engineers to ask questions. -Getting every other Friday off is very nice and the work life balance is good.

Cons

-The company reorganizes every other year which hurts productivity. -Lots of initiatives and processes driven from the top down. Most of these processes don't address the root cause and it just becomes another burden for the working level. -Yearly bonuses and salary administration seem to be more connected to the price of oil than on how well an employee performs. -Some of the decisions from upper management seem to focus on the short term benefits and not what is best for the long term. -We used to have offices but went to cubes a couple years ago (still not a fan of cubes).
