Anyone laid off/EOI during THE received their paperwork from HR yet?
It's more than 10 days after my last day on CVX Payroll. I thought CVX will send out the paperwork immediately so some people can sign it quickly for payout in 2020! Is HR still too busy with R4 or cannot be bother anymore?

I heard there were a lot of EOIs in IT. Perhaps in the 100s for this wave of Imagine IT (North America, UK etc). However the BU IT such as MCBU and GOM seem to have seen very light cuts. Very few folks left standing. This does not seem to fit with... — read more
