Pluspunten

Great work/life balance! 9/80 work schedule allows the employees to pursue various personal interests over 3-day weekends every other week. Also, pursuing advanced education is strongly supported by providing 75% tuition reimbursement for taking classes while working full-time. Due to its extensive global presence, there are numerous opportunities to work overseas if one desires. You can "switch" careers within the company without quitting by internally posting for open positions.

Minpunten

So-so pay. Because so many people at Chevron are "lifers" (e.g. average length of employment within its IT company is over 20 years!), it takes a lot of years to really advance upward in your career ladder. Although part-time school education is strongly supported, leaving the company for a full-time program (i.e. full-time MBA) would seem out of place here since not many people do it.

Pluspunten

The paycheck still clears (for now, until your role is moved to Bangalore or Manila). ​The 9/80 schedule used to be a perk, but it’s hard to enjoy a Friday off when you spent the previous four days hunting for a desk like a game of musical chairs.

Minpunten

The RTO Charade: Leadership loves to talk about "collaboration," but the 4-day Return to Office (RTO) is clearly a quiet layoff tactic. They want people to quit so they don’t have to pay severance. The "Invisible" Office: It’s impressive how Mike Wirth can demand everyone be in the building while simultaneously removing the basic infrastructure of a workplace. No assigned desks, no storage, and literally no trash cans. Apparently, "Human Energy" includes carrying your own garbage home and spending 30 minutes every morning wandering the floor looking for a monitor that actually works. Leadership Vacuum: Les Copland is the definition of a CIO "yes man." Instead of standing up for the integrity of the tech stack or the US workforce, he’s overseen the systematic gutting of IT. It’s a race to the bottom to find the cheapest labor possible outside of the US, leaving the remaining domestic staff to clean up the inevitable mess. The War on American Workers: There is a blatant, aggressive push to minimize the American footprint. We are being phased out in favor of massive outsourcing hubs. You aren't a valued engineer here; you’re an overhead cost that Mike Wirth is looking to delete.
