I find it laughable that they are sending health and saftey to India. They have a great track record with places like Union Carbide. Also they are definitely great at emissions control that's being sent over there. What an embarrassment MW and MN... — read more 

Moving this back up to the top. This is going to be the next most significant layoff in terms of timing. Prove me wrong.

That’s what we are, yet we pay millions to the so called “leaders”

Be sure to max out the life insurance. If you dont make it through the layoff you can always fake your own death!

It’s not just the India news or San Ramon HQ move... What hasn’t been shared is that we will move half our jobs to low cost regions. India will take a some time to build up. Buckle up for moving your jobs to Philippines and Argentina within the... — read more 

When will bb retire?

Next week. Marriott downtown. Your jobs are being sent to India.

With the BU’s merging into a mammoth called OPG, what’s to make of it? Seems like a lot of mangers will soon be slicing each other’s backs to compete for a chair. What about the lower PSG’s? There’s got to be some forthcoming overlap. I smell a... — read more 

Hi, I know Layoff is generally a rant place and sometimes, rightly so, but serious question, why all the negativity towards MW? Some of the good he’s done is he didn’t overbid for Andarko, I think he gave up his bonus along with some of his C suite... — read more 

Can someone honestly explain the logic?

Why in the world are we hiring? And who in their right mind would accept a job at a company that's about to have major cuts? Make it make sense, please.

Hearing it’s gonna happen.. but the new haircut/arrangement in Guyana is the question. How are folks feeling about it? T-minus 7 months…

Watched it, can’t understand what it’s about.

Maybe management needs to learn this before they completely destroy the company with layoffs and outsourcing for short term gains: Stakeholder capitalism is a business management philosophy that requires companies to consider the interests of all... — read more 

Probably too early to tell, but any thoughts on the new (reduced) HRLT?

Musk is having people drop in at the home of those calling in sick to verify they are not at the casino or on vacation. Is this the next process improvement fad? I hope not as I use 100% of my sick leave every year to supplement vacation days. In... — read more 

My boss started asking us about work we can send to India. I told him excitedly about all they can do. Such as clean-up of our data, creating database, generating reports that he and his bosses want from various databases. Surveillance monitoring of... — read more 

What are the numbers for downstream? Can they reduce staff any more in the refineries?

Any news on a possible RTO 5x a week like Amazon and dell?

What’s the better option for the retirement pension…lump sum or annuity? And if you aren’t yet 60, is it worth waiting until age 60 for the disbursement or just take it now and accept the reduced discounted amount? Thanks!

I truly think if we do another major layoff with a fancy name like "Transform to Win" will set the company up on a path of destruction that will end this historic company. We have already cut to the bone in some areas and sending jobs overseas is... — read more 

Will this process be Swift?

So MW pushed out PB who was supposed to be the next ceo. NH is pushed out too. So now we are left with losers EB, MN, and JG. This company is going down.

Is the Richmond Refinery for sale? I doubt it due to the recent half a billion dollar settlement paid out to the city, however I am wondering what the language behind that deal is if the Company no longer owns the asset. Also, anyone understand the... — read more 

If you're affected, don't get stuck waiting forever for the next perfect job in the same field. It’s fine to apply, but at some point, you’ve got to learn move on. Losing your job doesn’t mean you’re worthless just because you can’t find an exact... — read more 

I have wanted to leave Chevron for a while now. There were few offers on the table, none of which I found particularly attractive. I was ready to leave even without the secured job. Seeing where the job market is going and the overall economic... — read more 

Start with MW and then see where you want to stop. Clearly shows we have no plans. Analysts are downgrading our stocks. Market is looking weak, it would be bloodbath in 2025. Only thing that keeps oil price from falling is war with Iran. Looks like... — read more

How does one einspanner b go from a CTO to CFO. goes to show that business degrees are useless

Getting laid off could end up being better than staying with Chevron. There are so many companies offering more exciting work, better pay, and great benefits, plus a healthier work culture. I get that people are worried about losing their jobs, but... — read more

The reason Board can’t says more about leadership pipeline than MW. What a POS this company has become. Latest move to copy Exxon’s strategy without its culture is going to end up being something that will lose multiple Billions.

I have never seen in my 10-15 years moral this low. So many high performing PSG 22-25s talking about leaving and hoping for EOI. 5 valuable HR employees have just quit in past 6 weeks. Tons more are coming as opportunities for growth are gone. ... — read more
