Pros

The people at Chevron are great - friendly, helpful, smart, diverse. The company truly has a team culture. Excellent focus on safety. Lots of wonderful career opportunities within one company.

Cons

Advancement in such a big company often depends to a large degree on who you know, not on your work quality. Unless you have a powerful "sponsor," you can get bypassed in terms of career advancement. Also too much focus on consensus decision-making. Requirement of global mobility for high potential employees is hard for employees in career couples, especially women.

Cons

too many processes sometimes Chevron Way behavior is used as an excuse to whack down people not willing to let employee try different tasks. If you are good at one area, you might need to work on that area for very long
