Pros

Very through onboarding (but there is so much complications that it is necessary), great pay and benefits, great people, stable employment.

Cons

Hard to be promoted and it takes longer time than elsewhere, cronyism, a lot of non job related additional actions need to be taken for a better grade but then you still can get a basic grade, because visibility is more important than an actual job you are doing, very complicated structure that takes time to learn and then it changes every year or less.

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
