Pros

Chevron has a great work environment, in my experience teams try not to overload you which results in great work life balance. Also you're given freedom to grow at your own pace which is a huge plus. Overall, my experience at Chevron has been great.

Cons

Flexible remote work has been iffy with the pandemic as a developer. Some teams come in once a month and others come in 3 times a week. Wish it was on a case by case basis. Also, the technical expectations from managers is pretty low; I wish the company motivated workers to produce good work not just work to get the job done.

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.
