Pros

Good salary - pay is among the best you will find anywhere. Good working conditions - nice office facilities and grounds. Good coworkers as well.

Cons

Too many cutbacks when business conditions are challenged. This impacts employee morale too often and the company loses more than it saves from the cutback.

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.
