Pros

The salary is good and you get an extra 5 days a year off.

Cons

The culture is absolutely toxic. The most unfriendly people I have ever encountered in my career. No team work whatsoever, people are trying to build mini 'empires' and to take credit and 'recognition' for just actually doing their jobs. In terms of technical competencies, the lack of experience and knowledge is astonishing, but the more shocking part is the denial and refusal to accept shortcomings. The competences are questionable and often you see people working in areas with no past experience.

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.
