Today or later in the week?

I got my offer letter in the middle of the night. I found it this morning when I woke up. However, the email was followed by a recall request. I’m not clicking on the recall because I’ll lose the offer email. I thought we were supposed to get calls... — read more 

Looks like we will start hearing on Tuesday and I am cautiously optimistic. I had discussions with all 3 (1 owner had two jobs I applied for) job owners and was told I would be on the short lists for each. I hope that means I will be the top... — read more 

I’ve been around 25 years and know hundreds of employees worldwide. I know zero who were left standing in R1 or R2. In R3 I know of only two. How about R4? Should we post initials and former dept? Two I know we’re ETC, planner and geologist. — read more 

What will the timing be for R4 relocations given current office closures / COVID? How have they handled it for previous rounds? I’m based in Houston today and expecting to place into a role in San Ramon, wondering what the company line is going to be... — read more 

Everyone involved in R4 knows how crooked this was, no job descriptions, no incumbent info, nepotism galore. People being slotted early or being blackballed based on last year's PMP. Chevron is truly keeping the wrong people. Business as usual.

Best of luck to everyone for next week. Hope we can all land on our feet

Did the HR platform already leak those selected for certain positions? I’m seeing some reporting changes to various people.

Numbers are not final until offers go out and are either accepted or declined. Roughly speaking, my mole tells me the LT expect to see about 40-45% across the board. Including EOI's, not including Noble reduction numbers.

There have been comments from folks who have sought successful legal action against Chevron for employment related issues like age discrimination and such. Anyone willing to share firm names or contact info...or give some hints to help out people... — read more 

During quarantine, Google saw a shift in the top 5 Google searches. The no. 1 position went from “how to get laid” to “how to get laid off.”

To those posting on here.........STFU!!! Thank you!

So basically I won’t go back until stage 1. “There is no penalty for wearing a mask”....yeah, except it’s distracting, annoying, and uncomfortable. So much for productivity. I would rather work at home (maybe go to the office 2-4 times per month)... — read more 

Although there are a lot more important topics right now and articles on comparing companies in the industry generally always lack credibility, I find them interesting to read. The author of the last one about Shell being “constantly outperformed” by... — read more

which department cuts are still to take place. Or is it all finished.

Will there be any respect paid to the employees who slogged through 30-40 years at this company as they hit the exit? Any announcement or recognition? Just seems we no longer give a cr@p about people who have contributed for so long. Can’t we at... — read more

Not sure about you folks but I was told "informally" by my boss that I am out and I should be looking. He is a straight shooter and I actually appreciate the heads up even thou the HR is not contacting anyone yet. I am ready to put behind this IT... — read more 

Chevron does not have 100% control over when the severance gets paid for R4. They are counting on R4 employees left standing/EOI to NOT wait the 60 day waiver period. IF AN EMPLOYEE WAITS the 60 day waiver period and signs say in middle of... — read more 

I see myself being fairly useless the next week or so. Anyone else feeling this way? I just want to know what’s next, you know?

Any rumors?

Anyone know if we will hear the round 4 decisions the week of October 26? I heard the selections are taking longer than expected.

It doesn’t get much worse than waiting around to see if you’ll be chosen. I really wish they’d just announce who they’re cutting loose and get it over with.

So now does our PDR rep have any responsibility to us now or anymore? In other words notification will either come from HR or from Job Owner now? Is this correct? Basically PDR may not know decision made in specific positions???

I see two types of people posting here. Those who hate Chevron and think it's a horrible place to work and those who love this place and will jump down people's throats at even a mention of something being wrong here. There seems to be no middle... — read more 

If so, what’s in it? Would it have your historical 3x3 standing?

Would be nice if we could know early rather then the constant fear of the phone ringing.

Does anybody know how much average. Home prices have decreased?

Anyone hearing any news from the wells R4 selection event that's in progress? What jobs are they discussing so far? Are 25s pushing down 24s and so on?

One “good” thing for this ROM is there won’t be demotions for technical career ladder positions, ie, will be lateral moves even if position is slated for lower PSG range. Does anyone have insight or can surmise why Chevron changed the policy... — read more

Many Chevroids who survived the last rounds of layoffs in 2015-2016 thought they were safe, but 700 of them will learn what they saw happen to others. It is painful, humiliating, and demoralizing. Do not EVER become comfortable with your employment... — read more
