Pros

Good pay, good benefits, 9-80 work schedule, a strong emphasis is placed on learning and development. Only somewhat political work environment. Most co-workers are hard-working and extremely competent.

Cons

Some facilities have poor work environments (dirty old offices). Bonus structure creates environment where people often put too much effort in the highest profile and not the most important tasks.

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.
