Pros

- Good morale particularly among the recently graduated from college - Exposure to the industry for the upstream analysts as you are visiting operators and learning the O&G industry as you go - Excellent reputation: WM is the gold standard - Good and improving collaboration among teams - Nice launching pad for B-school or something else - Excellent vacation

Cons

- Some insularity at the mid to upper level - Some naivete that we wouldn't be so vulnerable in the downturn

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
