Business Outlook

Pros

Global scope & scale that strives to make a positive impact to their client's goals for improving production & reserves. An incredible company, with excellent people and a reputation second to none; true growth potential is greater than that being realized presently

Cons

Too focused on MBA graduates & training all deemed potential leaders through TAMU Business School. Approach does not appear inclusive towards the diverse peoples & cultures represented within such a global company. Too conservative in risk capital exposure, due to an excessive Accounting focus towards quarterly results
