Pros

- remuneration package is industry leading - work life balance with 9 day working fortnight - supportive environment with structured performance appraisals - skills development opportunities good but usually from your own initiative

Cons

- limited career advancement opportunities. - you HAVE to travel/relocate for career progression and likely to a difficult location for 1st and sometimes 2nd rotation - remote from HQ and upstream BU, limited input to strategies - selective application of Chevron Way principals when it suits can be irksome after a while - very beaucratic, processes and reports for the sake of box ticking.

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.
