MRO Named a Houston Top Workplace

November, 2018 — Houston, Texas

Great performance is achieved by great people. Candor and openness have been critical in building a work environment that enables our people to grow and thrive.

Marathon Oil was named one of Houston's Top Workplaces for 2018 by the Houston Chronicle.

This year's Top Workplace selections are based on 2018 results from employee engagement surveys administered by Energage, a leading research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. These surveys measure critical aspects of workplace culture affecting overall employee engagement, such as alignment, connection, motivation, and willingness to refer others to work for the company.

"There is tremendous opportunity to shape the future in a very dynamic work environment. The team that I work with is very collaborative and available to assist when needed."

More than 80,000 Houston-area employees responded to these surveys from more than 250 area employers. The top 150 companies were honored as Top Workplaces, with 35 of those in the large company category which also included Marathon Oil.

88 percent of our employees responded to the survey, providing approximately 3,700 comments.

"I'm committed to Marathon Oil because of the culture and the resources provided employees to continue developing from a technical and leadership standpoint."

"I'd like to thank our employees for making Marathon Oil a Top Workplace," said CEO Lee Tillman. "I'm honored to work with such a high-performing team comprised of remarkable people. This recognition is a celebration of your bold, independent spirit; commitment to our shared values; and everything you do to make a difference at work, at home and in our communities."
