Pros

Great career opportunities and pay/benefit packages (especially the longer you stay). The culture differs slightly in different businesses but is overall favorable. I truly respect the company's values (Honesty, Integrity, Respect for People) and have found very few times in my career where these values are not followed.

Cons

Slow decision-making and consensus culture. Has changed somewhat during my tenure but still needs improvement. Work quite a few hours but have flexibility to manage home life.

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
