Pros

Collaborative/team environment, friendly work culture, excellent salary and benefits, work-life balance (9/80 work schedule), training opportunities

Cons

Can be bureaucratic and political at times, coaching for training and career planning could have been better, during (and after) my tenure there was a lot of movement out of downstream into upstream, which could be a sign of either low morale or poor career opportunities compared to other parts of the business

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.
