Pros

Enthusiastic staff, financial aid whenever you decide to expand your educational background, medical, life and pension plan that contributes to your future.

Cons

I personally don't believe that Chevron has any downsides because the company offered an opportunity that I've gained experience within my field of study and also within other departments because within the company your taught to be a dynamic individual that not only sticks within your job description but also gain exposure within other departments.
