Pros

This company has awesome benefits: 7% match t 401k and 7% profit sharing contribution to a pension plan. After 50, you start accumulating health insurance benefits for retirement.

Cons

This company has too many mid-level managers. Everything decision or action takes 3 meetings. There are managers, directors and VP's that have managers or team leads just to go to meetings. The ethics and management approach to Macondo Well disaster is indicative of how this company runs day to day. This company always operates in the grey area of ethics. The attitude is not what is right, but what can we get away with and what will it cost if we get caught. Most of the top talent leaves after vesting because of the toxic atmosphere. This is a company living in the old world of cronyism. It is not what you know, but who you know.

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.
