Pros

Overall great colleagues with strong work ethics

Cons

French management who believe they are superior to everyone else and know everything. Too much micromanaging. Too many French in top jobs outside France because no trust in locals

Pros

Improved a lot since the spin-off with Total. Good long-term strategy. Healthy and strong company. Very dynamic, lots of acquisitions. Great benefits.

Cons

Heavy workload (more recruitment would be good). Quite an old information system. Not really user-friendly, could be more agile.
