Not bad, but harder to get good software engineering career development

Business Outlook

Pros

Digital transformation is beginning to help with those out there that want to be code. Chevron is starting to realize they need to use the latest software technologies to compete in the market. People are nice and work life balance is great with Friday’s off every other week.

Cons

Candid feedback from managment is rare. It is hard to be mentored if you want to be a software engineer, because there is a huge tech gap with not enough experienced people that can write good code.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good company to work for with great work-life balance and safety culture. The company takes care of its employees and focus on their welfare, health and safety above everything. Plenty of opportunities to grow and carve your career with new exciting projects and technologies to work with. You will also work with some of the best people. Good pay and benefits and bonus structure.

Cons

You can get lost in the vastness of the company. It is very important to network with people to get better opportunities. Sometimes it is "who" you know rather "what" you know to advance in your career. Too much red tape in certain cases and processes to go through to get approvals or move projects through.
