Pros

Competitive salary and incentives. Nice office accomodations. Generally freindly co-workers. Was a place for a technical individual, not just a sales organization that saw technical employees as a necessary support staff that had to be endured. May be a few politics at the top. Didn't realize some of the job amenities of working at Chevron Energy Solutions until I left.

Cons

When taken over by Chevron, bureaucracy increased. Can be extensive travel at times. With increased energy conservation business slow down, potential of being downsized and closing offices. Seems that ultimate goal may be to consolidate in California.

Pros

The people at Chevron are great and overall it's a pretty good company - decent benefits and company culture. The 9/80 work schedule is a great perk. It has struggled to stay competitive with other big employers in California though.

Cons

Leadership has become increasingly out of touch, with regular re-organizations, lay-offs, and offshoring of support/operation functions disrupting day-to-day work and making processes even more slow and bureaucratic. Overall most employees are still wonderful to work with, but the constant leadership mantra of "do more with less" and removal of flexible/hybrid work has definitely reduced morale and made Chevron just another job, whereas it used to be a genuinely enjoyable place to work.
