Pros

- Good compensation package with generous 401k match - Respectful and intelligent colleagues - Recognized company brand - Worldwide company with interesting assets throughout the globe. - 9/80 schedule with some hybrid (although hybrid schedule is slowly being eroded)

Cons

- Management has no vision. Continually reorganizing the company coupled with mass headcount reductions every few years. Always copying peers rather than leading. Frequent employee surveys are taken but actions are never congruent with the feedback. - Company culture and employee morale is severely degraded compared to 10 years ago. - HR is untrustworthy. Be sure to document all your discussions as they will make up the rules as they go. - Offshoring of professional jobs to India has begun to reduce cost (and copy peers). This will limit opportunities for US professionals.

Pros

It historically had a great work culture and work/life balance with excellent career growth opportunity, but it is evolving with the trending replacement of American workforce for global service centers.

Cons

Labor & staffing decisions are often made by outside consultants and upper leadership with little to no engagement of middle management that are on the front lines of delivering value and understanding of the talent. Wishful thinking does not think of the domain knowledge it takes to be the best. There is a shifting culture in Chevron that values saving money at the expense of the speed, ingenuity, and teamwork it once enjoyed.

Pros

401k match is the best perk.

Cons

Constant fear of being downsized and outsource to nations with much lower costs. Pay does not keep up with cost of living.
