To say I'm unhappy with how things turned out would be an understatement. I've been looking for the past few months and a few leads are looking promising. I'm worried though about leaving this soon looking bad on a resume. Is it better to switch now... — read more

There was a time when working here meant something. Now the dominant emotion is exhaustion. Pride has been replaced by fear and trust is all gone. Whatever made this company special did not survive the last few years.

Really really good geologists, engineers…Talent is the real competitive advantage.

Wisdom of the crowd. 2026 looking like a hugely transformative and impactful year. What does Chevron do well, poorly, and what risks lurk around the corner?

We have had a great speech watch party in 1500. Some men are still truly loyal to the man. Its ok if you feel that way towards him and our CEO.

Wonder if Chevron is hiring good talent folks or just bunch of losers who have nowhere to go.
