Pros
Great people - except new senior leadership team that new CEO brought in to surround himself with self praise.
Cons
It really was an amazing company, but the CEO has destroyed it by his incredible decisions to focus only on the US shale play (great job Lee!). You used to be able to speak up and give opinions, you now lose your job for doing so!

Cons
Do not handle change well especially in terms of communication, as well as great people there are some non team players who are difficult to work with, a US focus means international often gets ignored.
