That’s going to ENGINE in a big way. Mentioned offhand by a leader during a discussion earlier this week, I think they realized they shouldn’t have said anything but too late it was heard by 4 of us in the room

Any insights to how leadership plans to manage job placements? (I.e., will employees apply for their current/new jobs or will the company do this through managed moves?) Will this be similar to Exxon cutting the lowest 10% of performers using a... — read more 

Used to work for Chevron for 14 years, started with Oxy on November 2021, bonus are better at Oxy, payment is better at Oxy, Chevron may cut your job.... But not your work experience.

I have a couple of years left until retirement. But I have been lucky enough to belong to a generation that could accumulate some wealth through professional engagement. Nothing spectacular, but I paid off all my debt, have some savings, and have... — read more 

We did it. We achieved the unthinkable. Deep in the dark bowels of a faceless data centre, there is a rack. In the rack, there is a server. On the server, there is a database. And on the 350th Day, that database now had a field that reads... — read more

Everyone should be prepped...just like those hurricane checklists. You should have a top notch resume NOW. Mention achievements , emphasize talents that may make you a good fit for a new but different job. If you get cut, ditto for Linked-... — read more 

Seems folks are getting out while the getting is good. Any idea of early packages are being offered? Or are folks just getting out? Seeing folks leave at a few levels.

Looking very hard for a job with a different company in the New Year. Just curious if anyone knows what happens to accrued PTO (when you resign). Wanting to use sick days to get that vacation paid out. Is it use-it-or-lose-it? I've gotten very... — read more 

Chevron somehow has a 4.0 rating on Glassdoor. Not sure if HR has been sent to give overly positive reviews. I encourage everyone to post an honest review. CES results may get swept under the rug but Glassdoor reviews are public for everyone to see. — read more 

My experience with digital scholars has been that they have ideas that are not very practical. They don’t have experience inflecting people in a positive way and are more academic. Will the title keep them from getting laid off? What a waste of... — read more 

Will there be many job losses or no since it was a non-op?

No real research, no real investment, no development, no long-term vision, no ideas whatsoever. We became too rigid and procedural, with layers upon layers of mostly useless management. Acquisitions? You can gobble up only so much and pretend it’s... — read more 

Please forgive the seemingly neophyte questions. Coming up on 2 years with Chevron in Procurement. Prior to this, 10 years AD Navy in Supply. This is so foreign to me that decisions are seemingly being made without supervisor or their supervisor’s... — read more 

Bad Chevron...........The company is giving only one 'exceeds' in our performance outcomes, out of four main areas. Last year, I had three out of four exceeds, but this year, only one; and I've worked harder and achieved more, just to stay... — read more 

Research definitively shows people perform best when they: -enjoy what they do feel secure in the environment they can make progress Feel they belong -are doing meaningful work How we doing?

Supervisor is asking me for feedback. I want to be honest but fear retribution. I sincerely wished this person had an iota of good management skills. How should I navigate these murky waters?

This is the perspective of a mid career, ~25 years petrotech-subsurface total experience, ~ 2 with Chevron. What I have noticed is that: I am surrounded by top talent at my level (individual contributor), which motivates me to work hard and get... — read more 

Didn't seem like there were any good answers from refinery management on the call this morning. I seriously don't see how it could be worse than 2020.

That’s how long it will take them to roll out, slowly, piece by piece, at glacial speed, in phases, layoffs/reorg/offshoring. And I’m sure whomever comes out on the other end will be no better off than today.

Do we expect data engineers and software engineers to take the brunt of the layoffs? Or would AI related roles like Data scientist, ML engineer, etc. not be treated differently? I’ve heard mixed things from internal folks. Anyone have an inkling if... — read more 

Not layoff related, just genuinely curious how many of yall have a portfolio. For those who do, how close are yall to not having to work again/not having the reorgs affect you? I figure there’s at least some here. Wish we had an internal place to... — read more 

How do we get our politicians to care about Chevron’s plan to send US jobs overseas? Do we need a petroleum technology/ engineering union? How do we get investors to care about US jobs? Activist investment?

What is the pay range for a PSG 20? Interested the low and high end of this pay grade.

My today sheepishly informed me he had to rescind an EE because the powers above him wanted to see fewer awarded. Apparently in part because since company performance is low, it’s assumed we can’t be actually be doing EE level work. By all accounts I... — read more

David Graebar wrote a book titled Bullsh*t Jobs which basically suggested around half of private sector jobs are useless. The 5 categories are flunkies, goons, duct tapers, box tickers and taskmasters. I'd suggest ABU is dominated by dust tapers who... — read more 

Every time we go through a re-org recently we appear to try out the enlightenment from a management guru du jour, presumably after “someone” attends a motivation seminar or something. I think that Chevron had a reasonable management focus when I... — read more

Another MCBU Midland Leadership is leaving the company. When will they listen to the employees that no one wants to live here. At least relocate the office employees to Lubbock or up the PEP. #G-nsUp

who is in position 1,2,3 and whats their ROCE?

Will layoff be based on employee performance?

At least from the perspective of an employee. I’ve been with Chevron for a long time, went through a lot of cr-p and good times too, and it never felt like this before. I started at the time when there was still a prospect of actually having a career... — read more

The word on the street is packages are coming from some folks who were not taken by CNRL. Any details? Why some and not all will get it?
