Pros

Competent workforce, great benefits and work/life balance, ample opportunities for career growth and development.

Cons

Base pay could be more competitive. More importantly, management can be shortsighted when it comes to reorganizations (restructuring) which is done every 2.5 years on average. Many extremely competent employees are laid off with each reorganization, a disproportionately high percent of which have been under employ for >15 years.

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.
