Decisions: Shell Norco or Exxon Refinery

I have an offer from one and an interview with the other next week for an Operator's position. I don't know anyone at either location so I would like to get some opinions on both regarding pay, benefits and work environment.

An offer on one and you don't have info on pay or benefits? 
Posted on 3/24/19 at 8:21 pm to Outlander83
They pay the same, or nearly the same.
Benefits are near the same.
Work environment is near the same.
Your personality will fit in better with one place better than the other, but that is why they have the personality test when you enter.
The fact you didn't ask about upward mobility is telling.

Only have an offer from Shell. Waiting on the interview with Exxon but want to start looking at the pros and cons now.

Exxon. With Exxon, you will get a chance to move around as an expatriate around the world. Shell will only keep you within America. Exxon is American while Shell is Dutch, so you will have a better shot of getting into upper level management with Exxon.

Take the Shell offer. Interview with Exxon. Then make your decision if Exxon offers.
It ain't like you are signing a 5 year contract.

He's hiring in as an operator. The chances of him doing upper management are small, and even those small chances are decades away.

I do, but not the other. Still waiting on the interview. Just looking for some opinions on both companies.

Do you know of a difference between the two in upward mobility?
Posted on 3/24/19 at 8:37 pm to Outlander83
How many years experience did you have before these offers?
Posted on 3/24/19 at 8:37 pm to Gray12
That didn't cross my mind, thanks for the advice.
Posted on 3/24/19 at 8:40 pm to Outlander83
From what I hear Shell pays more than Exxon and they have big bonuses. I have seen operators clear 14K on the yearly bonus.
Posted on 3/24/19 at 8:40 pm to fightin tigers
Yeah I took the Shell offer. Just trying to prepare if Exxon makes an offer so I'll have an answer then.

I was traveling for work the past 7 years making close to 5k a week. I moved back to be with family so no TX for me.
