Seriously???? The RTW will be in 2022!!

So the new CNE business is trying to act like a startup while having a selection team for each position in each layer? Selection teams and layers are the antithesis of startups. Unless it's another startup that's destined to fail.

I came here thinking I'd be able to advance my career but so far that hasn't happened. I'm yet to meet a manager here who is not threatened by somebody who knows how to do their job well and who is driven. Instead of helping me, they're making sure I... — read more 

So glad we are simplifying things

Can we rehire people who were laid off in the past couple of years to replace those who have been threatening to quit for the past month or so for one reason or another (I know we all know the reason, I just don't want to rehash the subject?) I think... — read more

How can any place be innovative if it cultivates a ‘yes man’ culture which despises any attempt to think outside the box? What is sad is that people have become indifferent and now they do not even try to present their idea. Great people therefore... — read more 

I'd like to know if there'll be any layoffs any time soon. You know, the thing we're supposed to be discussing here? The thing why most of us are supposedly here for? Is it too much to ask for to get some info on the thing that's in the actual title... — read more

Considering the price of oil, who'se really impressed with CVX earnings?

I’m a mechanical engineer, got an offer that has a big pay bump, remote and is in a whole new industry. The thing is though, I’m not super excited with the company nor the work I’ll be doing. The company itself is fine, but the domain isn’t what I... — read more

We lifted it from the Houston to San Antonio datacenter, but now the writing is on the wall and we must pull out per Microsoft.

I hear Bay Area attrition for CVX is massive. Makes sense with the strong tech economy. Let’s face it O&G can no longer complete salary wise. The people who are stuck here (petrotechs) will steady see their (relative) income drop. (Serves them... — read more 

Who wants to bet there'll be no return to the office this year? Judging by the news and the decisions other companies have been making, I don't see Chevron going against every other company and pushing the issue before next year. Which works... — read more 

Chevron continues to focus on the things that don’t matter. We are constantly distracted from actually doing our jobs and being productive. The process has us thinking or worrying about the next role so we never focus on the job at hand. Extremely... — read more

I came here to see how everyone feels about HR and from what I gather there is an overall distrust. The question I have is who do we go to if there is an issue that needs to be resolved to our satisfaction if not HR? I understand that for many going... — read more

Has anyone seen the percentage of people of color in CVX? How is it in the general population and in management? Who are the most senior non-white managers? I can only think of a couple out of about 200 PSG30 and up.

Chevron has not ruled out mandatory vaccinations, MW dodged the question during the Townhall. They are waiting for the FDA to approve vaccinations this month. You heard it here first!
