Pros

Good pay and benefits for graduate role out of college Most coworkers are high performers and willing to help teach new hires Large company allows flexibility with movement across and up to different roles, giving employees the freedom to learn different skills

Cons

New daily tasks involving maintaining oil production are frequent and urgent but you are still above all expected to make time for your own discipline development projects (Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, etc.). This can be difficult to get around to with the workload. New work cannot be completed before crossing over to opposite every 2 weeks, so backlog inevitably piles up especially as engineers cycle out of the role every year or so.

Pros

The graduate program first rotation was really exciting. It was fun to work for a big company.

Cons

The managers didn't have a lot of insight to the program so you kind of have to figure it out yourself.
