Shell announces sale of its Permian assets
$9.5 billion, sold to ConocoPhillips. I though MW told us that the Permian was the answer to everything - why is Shell getting out?
Another reorg for SJVBU?
Any truth to the rumor that sjv will be going through yet another reorg? 50% drop in production without a commensurate reduction in opex. Town hall the other day hinted at drastic measures. What's coming?
Chevron compensation package versus Noble
Just wanted to provide some perspective to you Chevron lifers who seem to think this place is the pinnacle of employment. Now that I’m with chevron: Had my bonus almost cut in half. Lost 2 “personal” personal days PTO Have worse health... — read more
Walking Dead Execs
It is sad that Chevron doesn’t do failed leaders a favor and fire them. If they did they might go on to more successful careers at places where they fit better. Instead, Chevron puts their career on permanent pause and keeps them around another... — read more
Is anyone looking at which HR job postings didn't get candidates?
Interesting which HR job postings didn't get any action from candidates. Everyone in the function knows there's a group of leaders no one wants to work for. When is this going to get addressed? RM wonders why there isn't trust in the function. ... — read more
Chevron Phillips vs Chevron???
Has anyone worked at Chevron Phillips or know anybody that works there? Is this a good company to work for? Good compensation? How often are the layoffs there? Thanks I know they are a JV with Chevron and Phillips 66
Energy Transition Spotlight
nothing ground breaking plastering the word "renewables" all over the place some doubts on the carbon stuffs what does everyone else think?
Do you buy Chevron gasoline?
I consider it, if it's available and competitively priced. I usually end up at Costco or Shell. What about you all?
It's official! Biden mandates vaccinations
Believe me, I don't have any strong opinions on the matter, but I have to wonder now how all the anti-vaxxers are going to handle this (also, how do you 'weekly test' WFHers?). I also have to wonder how this has any impact when 80+% of the company... — read more
In May 2008, CVX stock price was . . . .
The same price as it is in Sept 2021. Thirteen years and nada.
IT Leadership is considering renaming the Agile Chapter to Agile Engineering Chapter
After all the complaints of how Agile ceremonies are wasting time, IT Leadership is considering renaming the Agile Chapter to Agile Engineering Chapter to bring credibility to an organization that is a total joke. How does this bring credibility to a... — read more

I have never worked for another company besides Chevron but looking at Exxonmobil... i think we are much better off. I am just curious if anyone would consider leaving for Exxon?

I am just going to leave this here...
Chevron to sell Eagle Ford
Chevron to sell Eagle Ford. Nobile’s Denver basin is next. Then the Permian. You don’t need the overhead of a major corporation to factory drill shallow wells. The question is where will the moneys be reinvested?
Ridiculous promises
Anyone else still believes Chevron’s promises that it’s possible to advance in your career here if you work hard and that the company really cares about employee development? Now that I’m leaving, if I could give advise to the younger people here... — read more
Loving this
Is it just me, or does anyone else love watching HR destroy their management with cold hard facts? It seems to me that we are lucky to not be in HR during a PDC, at least there is someone in the room making sure 75% BS isn't happening in our BUs. ... — read more

CTC to simplify
Good news is we plan to simplify processes by starting 6 new focus initiatives, with 19 new sponsors and owners, who are now holding meeting to define stakeholders and select implementation teams. Expect the workforce surveys to start shortly, and... — read more
Why people are leaving
Lots of reasons. Take your pick: Lots of jobs available out there Many jobs that offer permanent wfh or work-from-anywhere, if that’s your preference For those in CTC or a support function, fed up with the unworkable operating model ... — read more
IT is complete trash!
Our IT group is embarrassing! It takes months for us to complete what a Google intern can complete on a lunch break while playing call of duty. Am I crazy?
Pension going down in value
My Chevron Pension balance is down $19K in 14 months! Benefits hotline talks gibberish about the calculation.
Another HR resignation
HR got another one. They are trying to convince her to stay and get a roll and promotion in PDC. This one was a favorite. I know 3 more that are giving Chevron one last PDC. They are all being very telling to their PDRs as these are all quiet... — read more
Would those laid off return and under what conditions?
and taking into account these changes that have taken place: 1) Almost all of the processes have changed to Agile. CPDEP is also changing. BUs aren't running their own independent companies anymore. 2) We let go of 30% of the work force but the... — read more
Chevron Hiring Process
Recently applied to a job at Chevron (before I read the messages here). What’s the hiring process like? How about pay? Do the posts here really reflect the culture? Any insight is welcome.
Houston going to phase 3?
Seriously???? The RTW will be in 2022!!
CNE is a startup?
So the new CNE business is trying to act like a startup while having a selection team for each position in each layer? Selection teams and layers are the antithesis of startups. Unless it's another startup that's destined to fail.
Why do CVX managers feel so threatened?
I came here thinking I'd be able to advance my career but so far that hasn't happened. I'm yet to meet a manager here who is not threatened by somebody who knows how to do their job well and who is driven. Instead of helping me, they're making sure I... — read more
CTC finance updates……
So glad we are simplifying things
I have an idea
Can we rehire people who were laid off in the past couple of years to replace those who have been threatening to quit for the past month or so for one reason or another (I know we all know the reason, I just don't want to rehash the subject?) I think... — read more
Very concerned about GOM offshore safety following the mandate.
Myocarditis and pericarditis are real concerns following the 2nd booster and I think we are put the safety of both offshore workers and environment at risk by accepting at face value the known risks from a brief vaccine research program. What... — read more
It is clear why innovation died here
How can any place be innovative if it cultivates a ‘yes man’ culture which despises any attempt to think outside the box? What is sad is that people have become indifferent and now they do not even try to present their idea. Great people therefore... — read more
This is getting out of hand
I'd like to know if there'll be any layoffs any time soon. You know, the thing we're supposed to be discussing here? The thing why most of us are supposedly here for? Is it too much to ask for to get some info on the thing that's in the actual title... — read more
Vaccines and Employment Consequences
What large employers are not requiring the COVID vaccine? Is the NBA and NFL also requiring the vaccine?
Earnings - Q4
Considering the price of oil, who'se really impressed with CVX earnings?
Would you Take this Offer?
I’m a mechanical engineer, got an offer that has a big pay bump, remote and is in a whole new industry. The thing is though, I’m not super excited with the company nor the work I’ll be doing. The company itself is fine, but the domain isn’t what I... — read more
Permian Incentives

Half the posts here focus on the jab?
Why is this even a topic of interest. Chevron has “forced” me to get vaccinated against at least a dozen things over the years: yellow fever, small pox measles booster and god knows what else, but my vac book runs two pages. I have been happy to be... — read more
