      Pros

      Chevron has a really collaborative work environment and everyone is willing to help you if you ask for help. Chevron has also let me move from job to job across organizations so I could get a variety of experiences and I have been given a variety of challenging jobs. Generally top management is also very good. The flexible work schedules are also excellent. I especially like getting every second Friday off.

      Cons

      Like many companies, the quality of first line supervisors and middle management is hit and miss. If you work for a great supervisor you have a great time. If not, then not so good. None of the supervisors are bad but some don't really do a good job managing newer employees. Also, the whole company is extremenly busy and its easy to lose your work-life balance if you aren't careful.

      A great place to work with typical big company issues

      Pros

      Good benefits, good people, team mentality really promotes collaboration and good decision making. Excellent benefits (no you do not get free gasoline) and very generous profit sharing and savings/investment plans. Good work life balance options, flexible work hours and alternative schedules. Aware of some people that are job sharing and telecommuting is allowed. Overall, the people are the real draw here. Competitive, driven workers who are loyal to the company. It's not uncommon to have people with 35+ years with the company and happy to continue working. Management promotes communication and regularly holds events to update on corporate direction and strategy. Most large sites offer fitness facilities and there is a high degree of focus on safety and ergonomic safety. Good focus on diversity and inclusiveness for a company in this industry.

      Cons

      Typical large corporation red tape, sometimes gets into decision analysis/paralysis, some remnants of an old boy's network but overall a very fair place to work. Some promotions are a little dubious, wonder how some are picked to get a golden light shined on the while others who are very very good languish in middle management. The corporation as a whole is getting a little long in the tooth, they need to hire more young people to get a sustainable base of employees. Still at heart a company with a lot of history -- can be a benefit but also a barrier to innovation and change.
