Pros

Best in Industry salary and benefits including paid paternity leave and domestic partner coverage! Strong DEI culture! New performance ranking process is much more objective - truly outstanding performance is rewarded. Offers a tremendous amount of growth and development opportunity if you decide to get in the drivers seat of your career - those who take a passive approach will be left behind.

Cons

Highly competitive US based employees often work long hours - common in the petrochemical industry though Job stability is concerning: Off-shoring US Based jobs to 3rd world countries to take advantage of low salaries/minimal benefits.

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.
