Pros

Money. Pay is upper tier, not necessarily the best, but good enough.

Cons

1. Constant churning of roles, so nobody is invested enough to do their jobs right. Just keep your head down and hope that things don't blow up on your watch. 2. US upper and middle management tend to be terrible at their jobs, often promoted based on DEI or favoritism, but not merit. Don't believe me? Work here for six months and you will be astonished how really bad most of these people are. 3. People spend 30%+ of their time socializing.

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.
