I'm looking for a description of what it's like to work at Exxon as an operator from the perspective of someone who actually works there. I've heard from people that might/might not know what they're talking about, so I'd like to hear from someone who has experienced it.
My situation: I've worked for a company for about 6 1/2 years in distribution, and I'm about to start a new position in operations. At the same time I was applying for my new position, I applied to a few other plants in the area just in case this one didn't come through. I took the test for Exxon and found out I passed. Almost immediately after I accepted my new position with my current company, I received two e-mail notices from Exxon that there were positions available that I was interested in. I guess the next step in that process would be to get interviewed, so I'm not sure how close I even am to a job.
So here's my dilemma... Do I stick where I'm at with the company I already have time invested in? I have a decent 401k, good benefits, plenty of time off. Or do I pursue the Exxon opportunity? To make an informed decision I'd like to know more about what they have to offer... retirement, benefits, vacation, pay (starting and top pay), and anything else that someone might be able to offer info on.
Thanks in advance.
