Pros

Exposure to working with different departments, different groups of people, different projects that are challenging. Chevron values how you approach challenges and delivering results instead of just delivering results. Chevron also has guardrails on what behaviors the company is looking for in their employees when working with others. I feel psychologically safe here, included here, and I trust the company to giving me some world class training on technical projects from experts. This company gives me hope to fulfill my ambitions. A new found hope that I haven't found in my ten years of experience. I also have a boss who cares about developing others, which is probably why I have many pros. There is a focus on COLLABORATION instead of competition here. I'm also at a point in my life where I don't want to work myself to death and Chevron values work-life balance. Chevron practices what it preaches in being a human energy, safe company. I am so happy here. I feel like I belong.

Cons

The Midland office seems much more friendlier than the Houston office (no one smiles in the morning and people get surprised when I tell them to have a good day. In Midland, telling people to have a good day is the norm). Process is slow with decision by committee, no one takes ownership of their projects because they know they're in the role for only 2-3 years. Chevron has a reputation of being a slow follower in the industry even though it has a large development footprint. Coming from smaller companies, you have to have patience to move a big ship and spend a lot of time getting alignment with people.
