"Nepotism at it's FINEST!!"

Pros

Paid well to keep quiet

Cons

Command economy style of management and operation. Unbelievable. All decisions ultimately made from Moscow but the whole operation is only a diversion to make people "Think" they are adding value or doing any real work. The only people with a real future at this company are RUSSIANS! People mysteriously show up to work in positions that are friends, relatives, political party associates from Russia, sons and daughters of business associates owed favors to from around the world. Never seen anything this blatant! Nepotism at it's finest.

Pros

Good benefits & package (in comparison with other Russian companies) International projects (if you're in Lukoil Overseas) Some opportunities for growth.

Cons

Awful beurocracy and endless paperwork. Total disrespect to employees. Soviet mentality. Impossible to grow, if you're not a member of someone's family, or not a friend of a big boss, or not of a proper nationality. They do not hire people from the market, mostly 'by friendship'. Mad about security - not allowed to bring cell phones to the office. Disrespect to employees private life and work/life balance. No flexibility in vacation planning. Terrible atmosphere, competence between departments, not cooparation. Directive style of management (like in army or in KGB). If you're not a boss, you're a fool.
