Topics regarding layoffs at Chevron Corp.

Nat gas soars

We gave away Atlas at the lowest historic gas prices. Prices have nearly doubled in a year and poised to race higher. Europeans are paying as much as $15/mcf. Crazy market.

This is not right

This leadership treats all of its employees with disdain but since their results are good nobody cares. It doesn't matter that we do the work behind those results. Nope. They are the ones who receive the accolades and we get layoffs, verbal abuse... — read more 

DP's Thursday Covid Email

A completely blank email would have communicated the same amount of information and saved the company a million dollars of wasted time spent reading it.

What a joke

When did strategic planning turn from actual strategic planning into sessions on figuring out how to pin this or that on someone else? Is anybody interested in coming up with new ideas and proposals that would move us forward? Or are we now stuck on... — read more 

Comments on EB’s Open Mic session ?

Just viewed EB’s Open Mic session regarding CTC. Interested in hearing comments from others on what they thought. No surprise questions were via Workplace and not PollEV.

Pausing Delfi

I thought management was okay with business disruption?

What's the point of share buyback?

I honestly can't see how a share buyback could benefit the company in the long run. Aren't there plenty of better ways to spend that money? For example, making sure you keep the growing number of more experienced employees who have been flocking to... — read more 

Is anyone else experiencing brain fog or confusion?

I'm not sure if this is just lack of a vacation, or burnout, or something else, but I find myself more easily confused over things that used to be so simple. I've missed a few deadlines, nothing major, just LMS requirements. I totally blanked on the... — read more 

KC says Derby is on pause. We all saw that coming.

Moving an entire petrotech infrastructure onto Azure? Of course that wouldn't be easy. It took more than a year to transition from EPOS to Petrel! SLB was not originally a M$ partner... Who do you think paid for all of this cloud R&D? Chevron. ... — read more 

Medical Ca--abis

So with the new Texas medical law upping the THC how does this effect the dr-g test / dr-g policy. I know in Cali chevron does not test for p-t in the dr-g test. I believe in recent years in Texas and Louisiana for offshore they still tested for... — read more 

Another HR resignation

Rumor is that another HR person that survive the Transformation will be leaving Chevron soon. Maybe not a big leader leaving, but a sign that the HR community are an unhappy group with many open to new outside opportunities. More and more think... — read more 

Our next ChairWOMAN and CEO?

So, we have a new Vice President. What’s up with that? Is this an indication of succession planning? When did we last have a VP?

Consultants

Buried in an HR post was the increasing number of consultants. Does anyone know how many of these guys are imbedded in Chevron? I was on a call where one of them said they have been "with Chevron for 4 years". Why did we just lay off hundreds of... — read more 

DP's Nepotism (Read the Article)

DP's nepotism is rampant in Chevron. Just read this article: https://www.forbes.com/sites/rebeccaponton/2020/02/03/the-changing-face-of-the-oilfield-a-father-passes-the-torch-to-his-petroleum-engineer-daughter/ and this article (which is a reprint... — read more 

We are still the best

We might have our flaws but we still beat all our competition by a mile. Look at what we did to Exxon! So stop being babies and do your jobs for which you are well paid and receive good benefits. I can't understand how so many people are not able to... — read more 

Q2 Conference Call - Confidence

I encourage everyone to listen to the replay of this if you did not listen in to the call just finished. Very few questions on non-oil and gas, which was very positive. The one primary question on ESG was critical in it's asking being concerned in... — read more 

New Energies...are we serious?

Take the head of MCBU and put him in charge of a brand new unit for alternative energy reporting directly to the CEO. Are we now serious about lower carbon or is this just more window dressing?

Misdemeanor Employee

What's the deal with a conviction, being an employee already? Do you have to disclose to HR or manager (some companies have that policy), or will they find out through routine background checks? The specific misdemeanor has no impact on job/job... — read more 

HR resignation

I just heard another resignation this morning. I am not sure if i am the first to post about her but she shocked her manager. Finger pointing, excuses and blame are being shared among 3 or 4 GM/managers. They are now questioning who is "next".

I am in HR

And I apologize to all the people I had to let go over teams calls last year. Most of you are good, competent people. I saw the Sh*t that went on and it made me sick to my stomach.

Yes, another HR post...

I am in HR. It sucks. Morale is at an all time low and only getting worse by the week. RM's LT needs a purging. The newer Directors can stay, those that have been there for a while need to go. Everyone knows who they are. They are the least... — read more 

Times are tough at Chevron

Times are really tough at Chevron. After struggling through a big layoff and now longer working hours and chaos in the organization. My question to you all is what is your ice cold beer choice after a tough day at work? I go cheap and go with Lone... — read more 

What I've learned this week

I have learned that we need to "grab the barbed wire" and embrace the pain, not play the victim. I assume this company would have the same motivational quote in the low morale in 1940 at Oswiecim?

Hybrid work model

CBU has announced we will be doing the hybrid work model of three days a week in the office as/when we return. Have any other BU’s made an announcement yet?

It's 4:11pm. If I were in the office I'd be standing at a Metro bus stop waiting for my Park N Ride bus having packed up early to walk out there

After 45 mins to an hour I'd be home and inundated with dinner choices and new math questions. That's a soon to be occurring reality, but for now I am working full out to my end time, have something heating in the oven, and may just be able to assist... — read more 

In light of requiring that non-vaccinated individuals wear masks, Chevron needs to be more diverse and inclusive in their stock people imagery.

Aligned with their goals of maintaining a diverse and inclusive workplace Chevron must include a portion of people wearing masks in their approved stock imagery to represent the diversity of views, health conditions, and personal choices across it's... — read more 

Vax Facts

Anyone listen to the vax facts call? I am an expat in the US. I have to be vaccinated in order to keep this assignment but my peer who is a US employee doesn’t have to be vaccinated. How is this fair?
