Bureaucratic management wants things done their way or the highway.

Pros

Opportunities and exposure to many facets of business.

Cons

Tell management what they want to hear, not the truth. Do things their way, they are not open to new ideas and change no matter what they say. Politics at nearly every turn, and they are quick to pull the trigger towards those challenging the status quo.

Pros

One of the top oil and gas services company - so opportunities are unlimited. The team that I am working with is wonderful. Every engineer is very knowledgeable and always willing to share knowledge. The team leader is great and he respects every member in the team equally. Even though some times project priorities change it is due to genuine reasons and I have never witnessed dirty politics so far.

Cons

Only two weeks of paid vacation for employees working in the company for less than 5 years.
