Pros

TLDR: Easy, Nice People, Decent Pay, Lots of Lazy People, Stable. If I was older and wanted to settle down this is a great workplace. I Interned here for two years, and the overall response I got from the people in the company I looked up to most was: "Work somewhere else if you are at all ambitious." It seemed like a lot of people were working on projects for a nonexistent user base (5-20 people), and if you weren't lucky enough to get assigned to a profitable section of the company, your work had no impact. Take what you want from this but I want a good fit.

Cons

Slow, Boring, Lots of Redundant Employees

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.
