Thoughts on JG town hall

I personally felt it was out of touch from what us employees really feel. Every manager has over 30 people they manage now, and JG acting like that's unheard of is troubling to say the least.

What’s the deal with HR?

I’m new to Chevron and have seen a lot of posts on here about HR and RM. what exactly is going on that they are so frequently discussed? Sorry I’m so oblivious to it. Thanks!

Subsurface platform is a disaster

Who on the Subsurface platform is looking forward to another long winded "listen to your leader tell you how it is" ? Our leader, a petrotech, has no business trying to run a complicated modernization operation whilst cutting resources and... — read more 

TPS

Why did the post about the disastrous TPS townhall this morning get deleted? If you missed it real time demonstration of J’s opinion is the only one that matters

Too many self-serving egomaniacs

The difference between Chevron when I started working here and Chevron now, is that there weren’t as many self-serving egomaniacs here before as there are now. Or does it just seem to me that there weren't that many before? They do everything... — read more 

Supervisors have access to Vax Status portal

Was just confirmed by my line management that supervisors (those with direct reports) have access to their report’s vaccine status. They can see “cleared,” “pending,” “no response” for each of their reports vax status. Remember how DP told everyone... — read more 

The selfishness of some people

How about all these people who are wishing for layoffs and cuts be it for themselves or other people just do everybody a favor and quit? Why wish for things that would make hundreds of people lose their livelihood just because it would suit you? All... — read more 

You’re all miserable people

Everybody on here is so miserable and entitled. We all make way more than we deserve and yet this site is just a nonstop flow of whining and moaning. Get a grip and be thankful we get paid absurd sums to do very little actual work. It’s unhealthy to... — read more 

If we were smart, we’d do this too

Still too much deád weight. “Exxon to cut U.S. workforce by up to 10% annually - Bloomberg News” https://finance.yahoo.com/news/exxon-cut-u-workforce-10-200716753.html

Supply and Trading

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 

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 

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 

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.

90s new hires

Lets grab the people that will actually work for us.........2000s. We get the best of the best......2010.......still getting decent talent.....2020....dredges once again. "At least we can identify with this worthlessness".

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
