Pros

Good learning opportunities for fresh out of schools. It is a great place to work at if you're white and you got connections, but don't think about working here if you're a person of color.

Cons

People are very racist, culture is rather poor, the work environment is toxic. There is no fairness. People get away with a lot of things because they have connections. The management is very incompetent.

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.
