It’s been posted on the board before, but the only thing in the near future that will reset the company direction is unfortunately a major incident…Valdez, Horizon, Texas City, Piper Alpha…... and they are throwing all the ingredients into the... — read more 

Just like the title says, is the pension lump sum, especially for people PIL-ing out, going away? Or is that just a rumor like the pension being rolled into the 401k?

Fighting noble fights makes no sense in this company. Frankly, it's destined for failure given management's conviction to squeeze every penny out of it. At this point, I see more colleagues simply executing on these poor plans. Given the mistreatment... — read more 

My PIP and PIL were rescinded after being placed in NSI, with no severance. I was given a variety of reasons but nothing solid. I fell into that same category - 49 years old, worked for the company 22 years, and no issues. I’ve contacted Gregg... — read more

KM is abandoning buildings on campus and growing Bangalore Campus. More and more buildings on Spring Campus will be emptied in next few years. At some point, it makes no sense to occupy only 3 or 4 buildings on such a huge campus. When are we... — read more 

There is a lot of talk here about BTC, quality of work, etc. But what is forgotten is that a lot of the work we do is still work we make for ourselves. It is not necessary. I suspect management knows this and when push comes to shove, they will... — read more

When was the last round?

I know I'm not safe from it based on last year when two of our best were PIPed. If it happened to me, I'd make sure to behave like those who are really deserving of being PIPed from that point on and spend most of my time looking for a new job, not... — read more

Is it time to unionize? Obviously not go with a crummy USW, etc. but any other unions avail for non manufacturing jobs? Time to level the playing field.

If my pension is vested and I now would like to resign without reaching retiree status, will I be able to take out my pension as a lump sum? Thank you for your comments.

While I recognize that the company has to motivate the 30-40 year olds to stay until the pension locks them in - the behaviors I am seeing are ridiculous. Senior technical folks (50+ year olds) with tons of great past assignments/accomplishments are... — read more 

Wow. Beyond comprehension. Custom built executive suite while forcing Hotdesking on loyal employees not even close to sacrifice.

I’m a recent hire and was hoping to get clarity on how long is typical to stay at a given CL. Assuming new hires come in at 23, and most people won’t make executive (30), that leaves 6 promotions over a career. From what I’ve seen early promotions... — read more

XOM loves double speak and word games, so can you help translate for me what "Very Good" (VG) and "Good" (G) ranks mean for the long term? My read is that G is not good, but rather not bad (NSI/NI) and VG is essentially the same thing but with... — read more

Over heard it was discussed during the business planning process. No pension for new hires, will stop contributing current pension with option to let it sit or roll over to 401k

Total comp? Just curious. Dont reveal things that can be traced back to you.

What is the amount of US workforce that will be purged this year? Not NSI target, but the amount of NSI that must be purged? It is getting hard to get work done with all of the reduction in headcount since 2020.
