Pros

Good management systems. Caring company. Stable with potential growth.

Cons

Poor career prospects particularly if you joined at a lower pay level. Good place for 'dollars for turning up' workers - lots of inertia to move anything forward.

Pros

Flextime The company means what it says when they want input. They actually listen to what you have to say. Chevron also will let you leave your current job and try another job that might fit you better. You have six months to come back if it does not work out. Great Company

Cons

Take time to make decisions.

Pros

The pay and benefits are great.

Cons

Not a lot of room for job growth and development unless you are a white male who likes to play golf and part of the "old boys'" club. I worked in Public Affairs for 3 1/2 years under one of the most tyrannical bosses one could ever imagine. Yelling, degrading comments, belittlement and snubs for quality assignments were all daily occurrences. I was even physically pushed once when my supervisor was having a bad day. I went to OMBUDS (an internal mediation service) about her, and their response was, "I thought she was getting better." Funnily enough, this was not her first time harassing her direct reports. She was demoted once before for the same thing, and has just been demoted again for doing the same thing to my successor. Failure to fire these type of people (yes, there are more of them) from this company is a great risk to employees and stakeholders alike. My parents have each worked at Chevron more than 35 years and have had their share of "horrible bosses." Beware.
