Pros

Great experience as a young engineer. Valero promotes high responsibility at an early age in your career.

Cons

Each refinery has its own culture and the company as a whole lacks a sense of uniform values. Very difficult to relocate among certain refineries. Several promotions seem to come from outside hires.

Pros

Bonus system could provide up to double your bonus percentage. The culture is very active in volunteering in the community.

Cons

Promotions based solely on seniority rather than performance. Ultimately, it's not what you know or how well you perform, but who you know in the upper positions.
