Pluspunten
Company is very much invested in the growth and development of their employees. Strong safety focus. Lots of social activities to participate in if you wish to do so. Working at Chevron was a fantastic experience overall, but with the downsize I would not consider it as a viable place to work if you are career focused, especially in Downstream operations. Fantastic compensation package including both salary and benefits.
Minpunten
Very limited opportunity for a long career as the Vancouver office has been downsized as of Oct. 2010 by approx. 30%. Being promoted is now very limited as there are not a lot of different career paths open to an employee as the organization is very flat. Best chance for any sort of promotions would be to move to California to the head office in San Ramon.
