Why only 2 weeks per year of service?

When Dwight Schrute fired Jim and Pam (as a curtesy in the final episode) he offered them a month for every year of service. Even Dunder Mifflin, a company with limitless paper in a paperless world, offers a better severance package. What a joke…

Well, No Work Got Done Today

More people in my group showed up for work today than I have seen in a long time. It was just to catch up on the gossip and try to figure out what the he-l was going on. Talk about confusion. I don't think much work will be going on for the next... — read more 

Young Engineers Do Not Come to Chevron

I am old and close to retirement. We have gone through layoffs every 2 years since 2018. As a young talented person, you would be better served at ExxonMobil or BP. They will tell you it's the industry, but our management cannot get it right... — read more 

RTO

rumor has it that we will go to 4 days in office starting in June. Can anyone confirm this ? Sounds like there are groups that already switched to 4 days in office.

No mention of health benefits (COBRA) in the new HR site

I'm glad we are getting severance pay. But there is no mention of health insurance benefits. Do you think CVX will pay for this or will this be employee expense? During the last ROM, I heard CVX paid for it. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks

AEOI No takers

Can't see the point in anyone going for AEOI unless they have another job to jump to sooner. Note to HR: Sweeten the deal with 2.5 weeks per year or guarantee to stay on payroll through June. I think many more would take it if they weren't getting... — read more 

Fire Americans and hire India s

Considering the hiring going on in India the number of Americans who will be fired starting now is going to be a big number. Also once you train your replacements in India the firing will continue. This isn’t survive one cut. Get ready for annual... — read more 

Thank you Chevron

For a couple decades of good pay and benefits, a fat pension, work travel for me and my family, and then cap it all off with a very nice severance package. I was lucky to go to work for this Company, very lucky. Thank you Chevron!

If you know where to look MOST of the AEOI info is out.

I'm guessing there will be an email sent to US payroll employees by EOD today. Key points: US Payroll only 2 weeks/yr 52 weeks max AEOI window starts Feb. 28 Last day on payroll as early as 4/21 if approved Time for you kids to go hunting.

Good news…only 6 more months of this

Taking the better part of a year for a reorg, in the name of efficiency, is the most chevron thing I can imagine. Wanna know how I know this is going to fail? This is what leadership thinks efficiency looks like. Meanwhile, morale tanks. Incidents... — read more

Complete Chaos at Chevron Today

I woke up this morning to over 500 emails from employees desperately seeking answers about what’s happening and how it will impact them. Many missed our morning briefing, citing stress levels that are off the charts. It feels like the company has... — read more 

Culture Club

Who thinks this new reorg will actually change the culture as spruiked at SETH? Or will it be just another PowerPoint fever dream with the same BS issues persisting?

Tips as we prepare to EOI?

Besides the obvious to save money and look for another job, what are you doing to prepare for your exit? I saw a thread discussing 401k. what else? bank vacation or spend it all? benefits? let’s help each other through the inevitable.

I don't want to stay here anymore

I started out dreading these layoffs, but now I’m hoping I’m affected. What happened to the Chevron I joined over a decade ago? The company used to treat its employees with respect, not like we don’t matter at all. Sure, it was never perfect, but it... — read more 

Offshoring jobs to India

Lost in all the articles and discussion on LinkedIn is the fact that Chevron is opening their new India office. Clearly the layoffs are offshoring. Those jobs are moving to India. Just like ExxonMobil has already done and continues to do. Look on... — read more 

Accelerated Expression of Interest Window

The S.E.T.H. slide on the coordinated selections stated in February there would be an "accelerated expression of interest window". If I'm taking that phrase at face value it sounds like if you express interested in leaving they'll have an accelerated... — read more

Why did stock market not react favorably to the news ?

CVX layoffs, market yawns

Stock market took CVX layoff news as a whimper. So much for ability to move stock price. What are you going to do now MW? Maybe if you and board are taken over by activist investors, the stock might move. Can’t believe we pay you $30M per year to... — read more
