Pros

Good pay and benefits. Bartlesville is a great community that deserves better.

Cons

Frank Phillips must be rolling over in his grave. Management at the research center is largely technically incompetent and work through high-school like politics. The young, arrogant managers are mostly sick ups and once promoted keep the power within their circle. They regularly meet for an exclusive happy hour in which the HR rep also participates. Difficult to trust anyone when the HR rep is in the same clique as the immature managers.

Pros

- Great pay and benefits (frankly too much for the industry) - Good place for new employees and people approaching mid-career to learn and develop - Great people and culture in certain organizations (Marketing, Lubes)

Cons

- Not a competitive bone in the body of the executive team - Much more time for analysts and reporters than employees - Politics and not leadership determines promotion and future - An eroding culture - Poor development of mid career employees - An executive team that is disconnected and invisible to most employees
