Reviews
I work in IT infrastructure. Much of my day-to-day work focuses on compliance and audit preparation (patching, vulnerability prevention and mitigation), as well as upgrading and replacing systems and hardware.
Very satisfied with work, broad range of responsibilities with enough room to find my own interesting projects to work on.
Day-to-day I support frontline engineering in critical tasks to ensure we can maintain operation. This involves start to finish of making changes on sight, documenting them for traceability and ensuring value opportunities are targeted. As a process (chemical) engineer in a multidisciplinary role this requires high level of collaboration with SMEs and frontline team to ensure the integrity of non-process decisions and clearly convey the outcome of process checks/calcs.

Pros and cons of working at Chevron Australia
Pros
The flexibility & hybrid work location options are very good and the condensed work week model of having every second Friday off is very nice.
I am given opportunities to work on interesting projects and further develop my skills.
Strong focus on supporting ongoing development of employees, including supporting additional tertiary education.
Great roles with real responsibilities, competitive salary, great work-life balance (9-day fortnight) and culture.
The culture within my direct [team] is friendly and collaborative. I am surrounded by the most supportive environment I've experienced in a workplace.
Cons
Working across timezones can be challenging.
Adoption of improvements can be slow, and finding relevant information can be difficult, due to the magnitude of available information across a range of internal sources.
Large company with people constantly moving around, so people don't know how systems work and why things were done the way they were.
Long graduate program.
Can be challenging working for a large company, lots of layers of management.
