Pros

Engineers do well here historically, with lots of potential career paths. The pay and benefits are decent for the industry, first-line management tends to be agreeable, and the work is purposeful most of the time. Change is coming, so watch the most current reviews.

Cons

Chevron's problems come from the executive level. They have no vision or plan, but merely are looking to meet short-term investor expectations. It's all about trying to make money with the familiar base business in the most frugal way possible. A few problems include: (1) Large-scale capital projects are never as successful as desired, (2) there's no growth strategy aside from gobbling up competitors, and (3) with the focus on short-term profits, the alternative energy work and research that could constitute a future vision ends up going nowhere. It isn't entirely just greenwashing, but it's definitely nowhere near as important as investor dividends. Finally, Chevron's new ENGINE project - an engineering call center in Bangalore - will probably make a long-term engineering job with Chevron unstable and financially unrewarding for domestic US employees. Expect chronic layoffs as ENGINE expands.
