Tomorrow’s the day that ABU gets to mash that tasty, tasty EOI button. Who is with me?
ENGINE org chart
It's funny how the Engine org chart isn't visible on the Corporate Reorg website, but is available elsewhere on sharepoint and in Outlook. There are over 1000 people listed under Engine at the moment. Thus includes people not in India. It looks like... — read more
In-scope roles zero transparency
No news on how the business is shrinking, for those of us in scope we see all from 16th. Suggested to post the number you see here and lift the curtain!!!!!!
CIO disaster
Unprecedented attrition from the software engineering, cybersecurity, and data science organizations until this guy’s reign of te---r. I know we are cutting cost and shifting commodity work to ENGINE, but it is saddening how much brain drain is... — read more
What's up
Hey what's going on with JG; the most over rated, narcistic, lazy, political, light weight in our ELT. Hopefully he is being shown the door or will he continue to fall upwards into the CFO position when the new CEO is announced.
Do it safely
By not hiring cheap overseas labor for your engineering and IT jobs.
LOOK UP
Make sure you look up towards the ceiling in San Ramon and smile you’re on candid camera. Heard they put in cameras this week. isn’t that an invasion of privacy? Unbelievable.
Will promotions be considered this year?
Will it? If so, what’s the process?
Always keep your options open
Chevron has no loyalty to you, so neither should you. Always keep your resume updated and your eyes open for better opportunities. Especially when the job market is so bad and you never know what might happen if you're still here when the next round... — read more
Motivational Meme emails
MN and MW getting stronger hard ons. Rest floppin'
Fidelity email Life After Chevron
Just got an email from Fidelity about Life after Chevron and steps to take during my transition?? I have not been notified that I've been left standing. Selections haven't happened yet. Does Fidelity know something I don't, or is that a generic... — read more
CES Results
Interested in if the CES results reflect how bad the morale is and the distrust and unhappiness towards ELT or did people lie in their ratings or is ELT burying it? Haven't heard a lot about it with all the other train wrecks going on....
Cronyism Alive and Well in the Permian
MFA picked her boys to go do her dirty work in New Mexico. The more things change the more they stay the same! Do not trust!
Curious to see what the EOI percentages will be for each asset
Time has provided many with time to reflect on if their career should involving moving to Houston or across the street to the next employer. Hearing who as AEOI or not get selected certainty will influence the decision to roll the dice or take the... — read more
Contact Officers
Today I reviewed the contact officer list for my department, as I was hoping to speak with someone regarding my inclusion within the current scope. However, I noticed that the designated contact officers are two individuals who are close friends and... — read more
Make it so stressful that people lose at least couple yrs of their life
Why they need to make it all so secretive.. many supervisors have no clue WTH is going on..
The complete lack of transparency
Leadership hoards information like it's some kind of power move, then wonders why morale is in the gutter. You can't expect people to perform when they're treated like they don't deserve basic trust. No surprise the whole operation feels shaky, real... — read more
So like who’s actually out of scope?
Thoughts?
Ever feel like you're trapped in career purgatory?
Too "experienced" for most employers to consider hiring, but years away from retirement. Starting over isn't an option with my savings, so I'm just riding it out, praying I survive the next round of cuts. Nobody tells you how demoralizing it is to... — read more
The Reaping has begun
Verbal notifications have started- beginning of a long couple of weeks … May the odds be ever in your favor
Chevron - Stockholders Over Staff
Out with old in with the new.... Frankly "Human Energy" is not a fitting description anymore.
MW’s raise
So worthless gets a 19% raise for getting us to this point. Imagine what they would have given him if he had run the company where we didn’t have to cut 8K jobs. What does the BoD consider a “sub par” performance? Did he get any “needs... — read more
Where are we with layoffs?
What stage are we at now? So much has happened that I can't tell anymore if we're nearing the end or just getting started.
Greener pastures
I’m off to greener pastures. I’ve got a final interview this week. I’m done with Chevron and the year long mind games. I have too much self respect to spend another month on this nonsense. And I haven’t been with the company for a long time. But... — read more
Protests?
Any good protests coming up? Seems like the executives are getting off easy.
I have already been informed that my organization position has been relocated to ENGINE
and I have been recommended for a temporary 2-year BU base transition role, to train & support the ENGINE personnel. I am torn but need the money to support my family. What should I do? Will there be any animosity with my remaining colleagues who... — read more
What happens after 2025 layoffs are finished?
I was in a meeting last week that suggested there would be steeper rig count cuts in sustained $40s/barrel prices. What happens at Chevron if that plays out? Do we go through another round of layoffs in 2026? Other large companies are already geared... — read more
MW: Do as I say, not as I do
As we go through this cycle of saving money and workforce reduction to save $3billion, remember MW contribution to saving money LOL. Nice raise he got on... — read more

Selection jobs
People always say to apply for roles where you’re already a strong fit—usually meaning your current level. But I’m aiming for roles that challenge me, where I can grow and truly contribute. Who else isn’t afraid to step up and compete for something... — read more
Window Washer!
Anyone else catch KM saying her window washer comment is going to end up on TheLayoffs? The thought of our VP reading the comments on here made me laugh. If you’re reading this K….thanks for that one.
Pathetic Subsurface Townhall
That town hall and the comments made by “leaders” was the most pathetic example of leadership I have seen yet. Now that their jobs are safe they talk about accountability….JKs ridiculous example of the blue angels pointing at themselves and owning... — read more
rocky pillars
Investors hoping for meaningful change may be overlooking a troubling trend: familiar, ineffective leaders are being promoted, gaining more authority to elevate their equally unproductive subordinates. This cycle fosters a dysfunctional leadership... — read more
We’re bleeding contractors now as they jump ship to avoid all the work that’s coming their way.
We’ve lost three in the past week on my team, all from preferred vendors, all offshore. They know what’s coming and have decided it’s not worth the headache. It’s going to snowball.
Friendly reminder: recommendation on LinkedIn
As we navigate this reorganization, take a moment to post recommendations on your colleagues' LinkedIn profiles. Start with the positive reviews and R&A you've given over the years. Employers outside of Chevron deserve to know their strengths as... — read more
RBU TOWNHALLS
Post the news Denver! We need to know the latest!
Timing
CVX is clearly delaying a re-org so Hess personnel can take positions. If the plan was to not hire Hess personnel, why not do the re-org a lot sooner….
