Pros

Extremely open & collaborative culture (from co-workers to upper management). Everyone is a colleague. Many opportunities for being involved via employee networks, events, courses, etc. Highly ethical culture. Sustainability is a key factor. Leadership spirit is valued.

Cons

Extremely long hours due to very high workload. Learning has to be done at own time. Compensation should be higher, especially considering the workload, long-hours and frequent increase in responsibility. Promotions only happen by finding a new internal role.

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.
