Supervisors in CTC have been told that under no account should they ever give 2x EE. If they want to they need approval from JK How's that for motivation?
How may employee salaries are needed to remodel a floor?
Thank you HMP
Experience working with ENGINE?
How was your experience been?
How’s that reorg working for ya?
Do we feel like we finally have the swim lanes straightened out? Is this model going to get us to the top? Or is it a s-show slapped together with all of us plebs suffering through the chaos? The execs know, but it is acceptable from their... — read more
MW
Anyone who worked with him when he was in lower positions, was he always this heartless and uncaring towards others? Did he grow into it or was he always terrible? Ive only been here a couple years and he's a monster in many ways.
Seriously - when is the next layoff coming?
I am miserable in my new role, the new office environment, and the new (poor) attitude that seems to come from every senior manager. I'm planning to quit, but if the next layoff isn't too far off it may be smarter for me to wait. Does anyone have... — read more
Union
We desperately need a Union to combat the management we have here. They are out of control and we need to collectively fight back!
Any struggling with the new unassigned seating?
I know our field folks will say that office workers are a bunch of cry babies, but I am really struggling with the new open seating environment that we went to post-reorg. Employee experience is an important way to keep people motivated, and Chevron... — read more
PMP
Wrapped up my PMP review before submitting and the writing is on the wall: no promotions, and “exceeds” ratings are being restricted so tightly they’re basically unattainable. Add in the latest S&T message from the tantrum-thrower/demotivator... — read more
Data center deal
Time to let JG go. Data Center deal is dying.
Why does noone talk about this anymore
There is still such a problem with diversity hires that didn't get resolved in the first layoff ..what's the plan and what are you looking forward to most
Has anybody else noticed this?
How we keep hiring in flashy new areas while cutting basic tools we rely on every day? It makes no sense and the teams that keeps this place running feel constantly undermined. A lot of people are openly frustrated because the decisions seem driven... — read more
Worst CIO
How did we get the worst CIO in not only out industry, but in the country? A used car salesman would do a better job. At least he might have a shot at convincing us of the lies being told. He must have wrecked GM IT. He makes BB look like a super... — read more
Benchmarking the leaders?
Since we benchmark everything else, why don’t we benchmark our leaders as well? If we had, we likely wouldn’t be in the situation we’re in today.
Toxic Mike
It is astonishing how far Chevron has fallen under MW. The culture is absolutely toxic. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night knowing what ive done to so many people, but then again I still have a soul. LC is almost worse than MW as he not only... — read more
Stop the BS
L3s and the rest of the C level just need to stop with the BS. Just say you are coming in the office, that's it, if you want to get a paycheck get your A$$ in the office. This fake caring how we feel or how we work is more annoying than anything. We... — read more
It's not over
Just when all thought waves 1 and 2 are done, and we are told to get on with it, it is not done. MK & big consultants are waving their magic wands to move more jobs to Engine. More announcements coming soon

Quiet Layoffs
Those in management circles what are you hearing about the quiet layoffs going on? Management seems intent on making things so bad for employees with the wirthless 4 days in office, benefits cuts and sheer arrogance from leaders. This American... — read more
Hasta la vista Argentina !
2026 Capex allocations are now of public domain. Absolute zero reference of Argentina, which can be interpreted in 2 ways: next divestiture candidate idling at minimum for the next few years until the Permian peaks and start to decline. Curious... — read more
Unassigned seating - TLDR: If you’re in a 2 hour+ meeting you should give up your space so someone else can sit at the desk.
That’s pretty much it. What a joke.
IT Holiday Party
How was the party? Did anyone show up? Did LC pat himself on the back for being so great like in the town hall?
PMPs are worthless
Had my PMP this morning, and my supervisor confided that he felt I deserved 2 EEs, but that he’s discouraged from giving 2. When I asked what i could do next year to improve my odds, he said nothing, that’s it’s essentially not allowed. Welcome to... — read more
Chevron has become a job hopping company only
Chevron is a great company to work for if you want to impress others with your résumé. Do not work for Chevron if you want job satisfaction. You are not a human. You are just a number and you are disposable when they want to pay the stockholders... — read more

Digital Core
Honestly, who are these supposed ‘professionals’ working on the SAP projects? It’s the same bunch who managed to turn all ERP projects into a complete shambles, isn’t it? Quite remarkable, really — not a shred of backbone among them. As for... — read more

Taking an MW
Like others I dont give an MW about Chevron anymore. Taking an MW in the nasty restrooms in 1500 is more productive than anything else now days...
Have to let go. Can’t care and survive.
At this point CV is polished, will bide my time. Still putting in work but only until something that looks better comes up. Thankful to be on the ship but this place has given and taken so much, the new lack of leadership is literally ki-ling me... — read more

HMP - unassigned seating fails
ABU was among the first business units to move toward modernization and, in the process, implemented unassigned seating. The experiment failed spectacularly, creating widespread frustration and ultimately forcing a reversal back to assigned... — read more
Indian office benefits >> US Office Benefits
