Pros

Ability to work with various groups across the globe. Ability to laterally move to positions in other areas. Opportunities to develop and implement technology in a large enterprise. Fairly transparent performance dialog sessions and review. Benefits are good compared to smaller companies Some opportunities for travel (though this has become very limited in the last 5 years) Nice people and good work envirionment overall. Focus on employee safety, including workstation evaluations and physical conditioning if needed.

Cons

Sometimes its hard to resolve issues across multiple teams or multiple sites. Siloed functions can make it hard to get cross-team projects completed. New trend in offshoring IT jobs to Chevron employees in lower cost geographies Slow pace of technology rollouts

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.
