I have been working at Trafigura full-time
Pros
Fast paced, no bureaucracy and apolitical. If one can sustain performance then the rewards are great.
Cons
Can be a stretch environment at times, but the overall employee base is young and dynamic which helps deal with this.

Pros
Free Food, salary, transportation, bonus. Best Organization to take their offer letter and negotiate it to get better offer somewhere else.
Cons
Over extended working hours, overtime expected everyday or threatens to fire you! Bad Managers, just wants you to stay in office and forget your family. No Personal life. Hire and Fire at it's best!
