      Pros

      - Chevron encourages its employees to build a network within the company and improve their leadership skills. It also has a lot of company events and meetings. Thus, you'll be able to develop soft skills essential for an IT professional such as communication, collaboration and leadership. - You are guaranteed to work with people from different countries around the world. - Travel opportunities, but it will depend on the team/project you'll be assigned to. - A respectful work culture that promotes diversity and inclusion. - There is room for career growth in the sense that you can choose to move around different roles within the company. - Chevron prioritizes work-life balance for its employees. - Mandatory WFH for 1 day every week. - Lots of freebies and food in company events. Free delicious coffee in the office.

      Cons

      - If you're a software developer/engineer and want to focus on building your technical skills, then this is not the company for you. In my case, there were a lot of "routine" IT work, endless meetings and business discussions that just didn't have anything to do with developing and maintaining software. - Too much company bureaucracy and red tape. For example, if you needed access to a database, you have to get approvals and wait for days. This just kills productivity. - Night meetings are expected if you are assigned to a team with US counterparts, which is likely. - Slow promotion. - Oil industry is volatile, so there can be unexpected changes in the workplace.
