Pros
Pay and benefits. There's also a good history of innovation and a reputation for excellence that -- if the company can regain it -- will serve employees well.
Cons
Current shaky financial status, including perception on the Street, despite an environment that's very favorable to oil companies. Another downside for American employees is the growing emphasis on London leadership at the expense of a strong U.S. management presence. At the same time this is happening, the company is shutting down (for financial reasons) opportunities for U.S. leaders to take expat assignments in London.
