I feel cheated. I mean, I love my job and I would probably put in a lot of effort anyway, but top performers being NSIed is disappointing. Admittedly, EM doesn't deserve top performers and the best people for a long time now. It bothers me how they... — read more

We all know about the 3% that we got here in the US but any other countries seeing any further pay increases due to the high attrition? Or is high attrition in other countries just wanted and part of the plan.

Seems like attrition is still fairly high; must be lower than last year but every day seems like LinkedIN is going crazy with cube pictures. No changes in stance; performance assessment NI beatings continues until morale improves

I have the impression that Exxon has burned a lot of bridges with the other major companies. This is going make it difficult to generate new business.

I would rather leave this industry but I wonder how many tend to move into management?

What is the goal? No news on the meeting this morning. Almost no questions…,this shows the moral of this company.

These ba----ds do not even leave small D&I and Asian networking events. They show up only to lick management boots. And the repeat post tagging all the managers and VPs is purely gut renching disgusting.

Wondering if you receive your vacation days if you quit or are PIP’ed in Texas, USA. Trying to figure out if you should spend your days before quitting.

(No names please) I certainly know corp's upstream campaigns there have been nothing but a disaster, though a straight executive termination/separation is something unheard (to me) while working for XOM.

I am surprised by the number of geoscientists being pulled into LCS. Are we giving up on Exploration?

Ranking meetings underway in Permian

Yay!
