Pros

- Great total compensation package for HR employees. - Lots of career development opportunities. - For the most part, everyone was super intelligent and my co-workers were great.

Cons

- The vibes are (sometimes) off. - High internal stress at all levels of the HR organization and very competitive. - Not a lot of HRIS / technical-focused roles or mentoring available within the U.S. - As with any company, working in HR can sometimes feel 'clique-ish' because they don't hire much externally (although a lot of internal movement) and the same people have worked with one another forever. - Constant restructuring and 'transformations,' but such is the O&G life and most Fortune 500 companies.

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.
