is this BU the only lucrative place to be in Chevron? bonus can vary from 2 - 9 months
I don't believe that will happen but...
I see that there are those here who think that Chevron will soon find itself in a situation where it has to start mass hiring again and fight for those that were previously laid off. What makes you think so? Are there any valid arguments for such... — read more
Hey DP, no more Covid townhalls?
I was really looking forward to the next dog & pony show to calm the fear, but alas I don't see any new meetings on the horizon. It's all rather interesting given that we've had reps from big pharma give their pitch, doctors give their take, and... — read more
Another HRDP resigns
Another hi-p-t leaves Chevron. Talent drain continues.
9 / 80 has unofficially gone poof!
Chevron has cut so many jobs that everyone is having to work so many hours that basically the 9 / 80 work week has gone poof! Comments welcomed.
Everyone is replaceable
However, Chevron is not blessed with an abundance of employees that can combine technical/business knowledge, lead with vision, develop people and can actually close and deliver results. There has been a noticeable deterioration in morale... — read more
Does Chevron hire people with disabilities, specifically someone who is blind/visually impaired?
I realize the legal answer is yes, but I am looking more along the lines of existing employees that have a disability outside of being mobility impaired. Can anyone anonymously speak to examples of blind or deaf individuals currently employed by... — read more
Start Uploading Your Cards Chevron
You want to show that mug of yours? Then show the card! You want to show a fake card? Then better hope no one gets sick that works near you then points a finger. COVID is a communicable disease and you’ll be held accountable if you lie.
Exxon CEO Reacts to 2021 Shareholder Vote
to my colleagues at chevron, this is very very funny stuff if you understand the dated culture and systems at exxon, which are similar to chevron. https://www.captiongenerator.com/2254511/ExxonMobil-CEO-Reacts-to-2021-Shareholder-Vote
I'll tell you what's wrong in HR
There are 3 GM's that no one in HR wants to work for. They completely disregard the Chevron Way and treat their minions poorly. Lots of stories of how they mistreat people. They fight openly with each other all of the time. We know who they are... — read more
Perfect analogy
A Titanic analogy, Chevron, like every other multinational oil company, just hit the Green iceberg. Right now, everything might look good, but you'd really have to have your head buried in the sand to think that everything's going to return to... — read more
A future without great experts?
Maybe I’m not right, maybe that’s my subjective opinion, but I think the biggest mistake is that Chevron no longer values skilled employees like it used to. Skillset and talent are slowly being devalued here. Proof are the many great employees they... — read more
Is anyone a regrettable loss?
Can we think of anyone that Chevron does not think they can replace tomorrow?
How Can I Get Chevron To Admit Men To Its Leadership Program For Women?
Chevron, the large company I work for has embraced inclusion, equity, and diversity. That's a good thing in my books, but one of the campaign's company-wide programs helps women grow in leadership and explicitly excludes men. I'm a male. The... — read more
HeadHunters
I’ve heard of cases where former CVX employees have used headhunters in their job seeking journey. After 6 months off; I think I will get back into the job market in a few months. Are there headhunting agencies for operators/HR/non degreed... — read more
Chevron is just another CAiptalist fiorm
Profits in Chevron come from losses incurred by others. In this business, at the forefront of those who lose are the customers and the employees. No matter where they go out, customers pay a surcharge for business profits, while no matter where they... — read more
Finance
Finance people never complain on this site. Perhaps they are the only properly functioning group in all of Chevron.
Is this true?
I've heard of cases where people accepted promotions that came with relocation and were laid off within a year or two. It sounds a bit illogical and not likely to me but I have to ask, is this true? I've been made an offer but I'd hate to uproot my... — read more
Confirmed. No layoff in HR in 2021.
HR was planning on a 10% workforce reduction in 2021, however too many psg 20-24s are leaving on their own. RM expects 10 to 15 others by year end. Anyone in san ramon can leave with a 50% pay increase.
As a team lead I refuse to be put into the position of policing my direct reports choice to wear a mask.
As supervisors we're expected to access the EMR Supervisor Portal to run status reports validating the vaccination status of our direct reports. Employees have the option of uploading their vaccination record to the EMR Employee Portal which starts a... — read more

CES Survey
Does anybody find it odd that the bottom three results from the recent pulse survey were work-life balance, simplicity, and survey to action? Would this not be indicative of a false sense of security in the higher ranking categories. It feels to me... — read more
Reorg or Lay off is Approaching
Anyone else feel like either a reorg or a layoff is coming? I can always stay busy, but it seems that managers and leads are handing out a lot of work of questionable importance just to appear like the team is really busy. Makes me wonder if the... — read more
The great resignation
Looks like the post pandemic resignations are starting to pickup. I found about 3 more CVX employees today that just put in their notice. Hopefully they will pay the rest of us more to stick around.
Future for a young petrotech (ocean) engineer at CVX
If I accept a full time offer with Chevron, what is the future like? Will I really be out of a job and looking for work in a few years? I know that many here have been laid off and it’s probably not the best place to ask, but I just need to know... — read more
What schools does CVX recruit most heavily from?
My initial thought is the Texas Schools (A&M, UH, UT) and some in the south. Thoughts?
LinkedIn Video of Michael Wirth??
I've been asked 3 times now if I've seen the LinkedIn video of Michael Wirth. I have no idea what they are referring too. Anyone got a link?
Why won't they admit to themselves that Agile doesn't work?
I don’t know what information they have, but it’s completely clear to most employees that Agile needs to be abandoned. However, it seems to me that they persistently refuse to see the real picture and persistently push for something that definitely... — read more
CVX - One of the Worst Companies To Work For In America
Remember when we were all ask to vote for CVX to one of the best places to work? I think we have crashed to the bottom of the dumpster. My son is an Electrical Engineer at A&M and A&M has advised that based on feedback from O&G alumni, O&G is not... — read more
Not enough younger people
There are still too many older people at CVX who keep holding the company back due to their outdated ideas on how things should be done. This is true from the highest level to the lowest. If we're to continue dominating the industry, we need more... — read more
Were these the worst years ever?
I came here just before the pandemic. My question is for those who have been here for years and who have managed to build a career here: do you remember the harder and more turbulent period that this company went through?
Expat In Covid
Anyone else getting the shaft on benefits because they aren’t converting expat positions into back-to-back? Many Residential positions are no longer allowing families to return because of Covid. As a result, people are stuck in expat jobs without... — read more
When will it become inclusive for experienced workers?
My suggestion is that Chevron finally become inclusive for both people with experience and skillset. I used to work with some of the best experts who were a pleasure to work with. There are exceptions, but today I mostly work with people who are... — read more
Salary transparencie
Successful companies such as Whole Foods disclose the title and pay of every single employee. Why not? Everyone should know exactly what every position pays, no? When will Chevron get there?
It was a good place to start
Despite the negative posts here I have to say that CVX is as good a place to kick start a career. I appreciate the work that at times was challenging and it further added to my skillset. I can’t say that it’s a company you can retire from because I... — read more
