Pros

There are new challenges everyday and the fast paced environment is perfect if you love technology.

Cons

The workload can be overwhelming at times, but it lets up for a bit and then the cycle starts all over. The politics here can be consuming once you reach a point they are unavoidable if you want to ensure change.

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.
