Pros

The best company to launch your career, move your career, or rekindle your career. We only hire the best individuals and we take care of them. Chevron has one of the most amazing development programs of any company. The well being of their employees far surpasses the companys self interest. Im in the Horizons program and it allows individuals to rotate between job assignments to gain a very understanding of your chosen dicipline. Great work life balance, amazing salary with out of this world benefits.

Cons

None, well maybe their Bellaire cafeteria is being a little to healthy for my taste...

Pros

Total compensation is out of this world. Salary is above average for similar positions in this city, annual raises are far above average, annual bonuses are typically 7-10% of your gross salary, health benefits are great, 401(k) is great. It is based on this that I recommend us to people, but not without mentioning the below cons.

Cons

The managerial approach to subordinates needs to be overhauled. While I enjoy a culture based on safety, the employees have come to feel as though they cannot move since the senior office manager does not want the first recordable incident in some time to occur on his watch. Employees come to feel demotivated by the lack of freedom of expression and steady rejection of office activities that are presented to him. It's quite parental in nature. The safety system is used more to penalize employees who report discomfort instead of being used as designed, which is to get to the root cause of what about the employee's day is leading to the discomfort.
