Pros

Work with some of the smartest people in Upstream Oil and Gas I have ever met. Every person is approachable and helpful. Most folks are humble as well. 9/80 is an enjoyable perk.

Cons

Departments sometimes tend to be siloed, so finding the right person or contact involves extensive networking.

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.
