Pros

Good company for the most part. Good safety record at oil sands site. Leadership for the most part good.

Cons

Lousy way of doing cutbacks to their staff. If your position changed by a 30 % then your position was considered open to all employees in the company to apply. Employee holding the position had to apply for their own position. No interviews are conducted, no references are spoken to and past performance reviews are not applicable. One person, usually a VP makes the decision with no consultation from anywhere else. In majority of cases the employee holding the position at the time is forced out without any consideration for past performance and no input from any over seeing supervisors.

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.
