Pros

Great pay, good development, work is busy (depending on your project) and you're given real responsibilities

Cons

Work can get extremely busy, a lot of red tape tp wade through, and sometimes things don't get done because the other people you depend on are too swamped.

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.
