Pros

- Pay above average of most other companies - Great benefits - Hybrid schedule option (role dependent) - Work Life Balance encouraged - Career growth and relocation strongly encouraged - Many ex-pat opportunities

Cons

- Experiences can be drastically different based on location and type of work. ie. On-site (in the field) Engineering v. Corporate Engineering. - Career growth = relocation. If stable work location is desired then upwards career growth will be a difficult goal. Relocation and role change = promotions

Pros

The people at Chevron are great and overall it's a pretty good company - decent benefits and company culture. The 9/80 work schedule is a great perk. It has struggled to stay competitive with other big employers in California though.

Cons

Leadership has become increasingly out of touch, with regular re-organizations, lay-offs, and offshoring of support/operation functions disrupting day-to-day work and making processes even more slow and bureaucratic. Overall most employees are still wonderful to work with, but the constant leadership mantra of "do more with less" and removal of flexible/hybrid work has definitely reduced morale and made Chevron just another job, whereas it used to be a genuinely enjoyable place to work.
