Pros

Smart people, good growth opportunities and good benefits and salary compared to the market. Also, much of the career progression depends on the individual's own initiative. Purely technically its a great place to work.

Cons

Some things not 100% transparent - for instance ranking CEP, IPFs and competencies. Also, though open resourcing is a great idea, its not fully transparent - many things happen behind the curtain - many jobs made directly and going around MOR/OR

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
