Pros

working culture is good, many opportunities to explore different roles. It all depends on which project you are working in, the upstream, midstream or downstream are all different. But you can experience a lot

Cons

Field work is always at the places which are remote, like in desert, deep water ocean, mountainous area. Not really a con, but you have to be ready for work in places with bad or no phone signal, no modern city life, live in containers, etc.

Pros

The people at Chevron are great and overall it's a pretty good company - decent benefits and company culture. The 9/80 work schedule is a great perk. It has struggled to stay competitive with other big employers in California though.

Cons

Leadership has become increasingly out of touch, with regular re-organizations, lay-offs, and offshoring of support/operation functions disrupting day-to-day work and making processes even more slow and bureaucratic. Overall most employees are still wonderful to work with, but the constant leadership mantra of "do more with less" and removal of flexible/hybrid work has definitely reduced morale and made Chevron just another job, whereas it used to be a genuinely enjoyable place to work.
