Pros

Complicated and challenging job working with various moving parts. I especially enjoyed working with colleagues in India and Philippines. working with plants and transportation companies was fulfilling.

Cons

Upper management was so focused on "safety" it was very contrived. Meetings were unproductive. Lack of trust from upper management. They got rid of "980s" which allowed us to work 9-9 hour days, and have the 10th off to spend with family. They cancelled this one day with no notice, and it was devastating to me as a mother. absolutely devastating. The lack of communication surrounding it was cowardly.

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.
