Pros

Equinor is one of the best companies to work with. It offers a great work-life balance with a lot of benefits. The work environment is great, people are always helpful and prone to help you with everything you need. It's a healthy, collaborative and caring work environment. The workload is also good and most people tend to not feel overwhelmed, since it tends to be well distributed (for most). Salary is also good and competitive in Norway, although is a bit lower than what other countries (such as the U.S.) usually offer. But one of the best things about the company is the social activities and celebrations: lots of great dinners and cake to celebrate every possible milestone.

Cons

Starting in the company can be a bit challenging, especially if you don't have a lot of experience in the oil industry. You are overloaded with information at first and it takes a long time to understand how the company functions and how the work is structured. The amount of acronyms for every possible thing is unacessary and makes things even more difficult for those starting. Handovers are also not a very strong suit and it can be hard to understand what has been done in the past. Some leaders also fail to explain the task properly and what needs to be done.
