Anyone know what the 2021 attrition is set to be?
Nobody wants to work here anymore
Even talented young people are leaving in droves. It's taking them less and less time to figure out they made a huge mistake when they accepted an offer from Exxon. After that, it doesn't take them long to find another place where their talent will... — read more
CLN EMRE Lab Study?

Train managers properly
I'm tired of having to do a lion's share of their work for none of their pay. If you promote somebody and give them a raise, the least you can do is make sure they know what they're doing. Although, who am I kidding. We all know that being good at... — read more

If you thought 2021 was bad, wait to see how 2022 turns out
Think about it, XOM leadership is so desperate to increase profits that it doesn't care what corners they cut or what jobs they decide to eliminate - and how. The company has been getting worse every year, and that will not change any time soon... — read more
"Let's go, Durwood!"
when EM has at least one board member ready to say that, I'll increase my XOM stock holding from my 10 current shares. Until then - it's NSFW, you know.

New Research Org
When is the New org coming online? Any insights on the structure?
My goal is to be out of XOM sometime in 2022
If I'm still here by 2023, I'm going to consider it a personal failure. I've been finding plenty of excuses why I can't leave this week or this month but even I know that enough is enough. If I get laid off in the meantime, even better. For the first... — read more
