Pros

For Bangkok office, there are free drinks, healthcare insurance plans, fitness. Junior collaborators are nice and ready to support you.

Cons

- Mind-dumbing: simply control reports and check inputs, and ensure that payslips are correctly reported. Require to memorize terms and process - Politics: talking behind one's back can be seen regularly among mid-managers/director at the Bangkok office. Apart from performance, flattering is required to get promoted. - Limited career growth path: this field is very specialised; it is quite hard to change field after some years of working. However, there is a internal rotation program, but you need to get accept by your team and new team to be rotated. - Working hour: you need work late between 2-3 weeks/month - Opinions are not welcome: you cannot express any ideas that are contrary to the management's view - Not international working culture

Pros

Great all around compensation - from salary, benefits (401k & pension & flexible work], medical [fantastic] Great people - at the company you understand everyone around is came from being one of the smartest people at their previous job/university. Within IT the overwhelming majority of people really care for you, this feels way more collaborative than competitive. Career Development - lots of opportunities to grow in breadth of experience to get deep in your skills and grow in leadership skills

Cons

Work Politics - being such a large corporation with a lot of history there is a tendency to be work politics/red tape sheerly because of the size of the company. However, it is not really bad if you are willing network , put yourself out there to talk with leaders, and be a normal hard-working enjoyable employee. If you do these two things you will succeed at ExxonMobil.
