Pros

Fair pay for a fair job. Good share scheme and excellent pension scheme. Opportunities to move on. Flexible with regard to time off and they place an emphasis on quality training. You dont feel hounded by management all the time and they give you space to do your job effectively. If you can dodge the bullet til retirement day then you will be relatively well off in retirement.

Cons

People have to reapply for jobs every few years. Constant specualtion about breaking up R&M and E&P. Share price is a bit low recently (but then thats a problem people without good share schemes dont have I suppose)

Pros

There is good opportunities for growth and the entry level compensation is above average. BP is one of the major oils so it is what it is. There are opportunities to advance if you are willing to put in the work. I got my job through on campus interviews.

Cons

Some of the downsides are the amount of feedback you recieve for your work. In my opinion it is not where it should be yet. In addition I think the company could do more in terms of diversity and mentoring programs. Overall I've been happy with the way things have been going and see myself being here for awhile.

Pros

The shares and bonus you get. Also the compressed working week they do but stopping in Jan as they are making cut backs but can still afford to sponser London 2012 which is going to cost them about £40M. The xmas parties were always good but sure we probably wont be getting one of these either this year.

Cons

Having to reapply for your job each year because management want to change something and then you end up with the same job anyway. Total waste of time. The air con in the office doesn't work. the food in the canteen is gross. My manager has no people skills at all.
