Pros

Lots of diversity: women, people of color, gay people, very unlike other companies in the energy sector except Chevron.

Cons

Job performance ratings and satisfaction depends on your manager's personality, not your actual performance, and managers change every two years max.

Pros

Supportive team environment with good learning opportunities and exposure to large-scale projects. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company offers strong brand recognition and career development resources.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow due to layers of management, and processes sometimes feel overly bureaucratic. Workload and priorities can shift quickly, which may create stress depending on the team.
