Pros

- Great work life balance (9/80 Schedule). - Friendly colleagues. - Interesting projects with tangible real-world impact. - You can make a career here, rather than just a job.

Cons

- Dysfunctional operating model with too many agile ceremonies which leads to slowness and confusion. - Pay is below par although good benefits (great 401K match for example). - Supervisors are good, but higher leadership just pontificates rather than set clear technical directions or an inspiring vision for growth. - Questionable long-term future with changing energy demands. - Company is more focused on run-and-maintain rather than growth. - Talk of layoffs and outsourcing in 2025.

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.
