Pros

Dedicated, top-notch technical and subject matter experts that are wonderful to work with; a very collaborative and partnering culture overall with a strong corporate culture and ethical foundation.

Cons

Management in the middle and upper tiers is somewhat disconnected from key drivers and expedited decision making and freedom that is necessary in the current industry environment. Also, some of the lateral management hires are influencing and influencing company direction toward personality-based reward versus substantive work product.

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.
