Pros

Great professional development opportunities Socially aware company, they try to market for racial/social/energy equality - jury is still out on how authentic these messages are Good salary, not sure how it compares to other OG majors though Flexible working at the discretion of the manager

Cons

Boys Club - hardcore New hires are all A+ type which ends up with a bit of friction Easy to get lost in such a big company

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.
