I am in R4 and have been told that I will be getting my own job by my boss and to not apply to 4 positions as to not overwhelm the slates. The problem I have is that when I got this position the grade was career ladder 21-23. Now it is posted as... — read more 

I find it ridiculous that nobody thought to tell JJ or JG that R4 would be happening during one of the busiest times of the year for petrotechs...reserves. Has JJ completely forgotten how the business runs?!? It just speaks to how ridiculously out of... — read more 

Who are the worst people to work for in CTC? I’m trying to avoid posting in to a nightmare role in Round 4, but I’m early in my career and don’t know who the big bads really are. Everyone always says the right things when you speak to them, and... — read more 

At least there's some good news with this sinking oil tanker of a company. Sure there's layoff, oil prices & EOI's but at least the interest rates are going down and our lump-sums are going... — read more 

Dear Chevron HR - We (Noble employees) got an email this week saying future staffing decisions will be made by “teams comprised of Noble and Chevron”. Presumably this means our managers. While this may seem like reasonable idea, I’d offer a word of... — read more 

I haven't heard or seen one in a long time. There is a lot of 'Doing' going on right now. Doing layoffs. And you will be doing a job search.

Seeing invites for office hours or open mic discussions where those interested can learn about the organization. That is equivalent to hosting a career fair but not holding interviews to fill a job. If this is too overwhelming for selection reps... — read more 

Australia press just reported Chevron has reduced staff by 25%. Why don’t our US leaders tell us about the international status? This may give some idea on how round 4 will go in the US. Since Australia is a core area it is not good news. Lots of... — read more 

So if I take the EOI route, how soon can I get a job with another company outside of the oil & gas sector and still receive the severance? November 2nd? Or do I need to wait after the redeployment period? Couldn't find anything in the... — read more 

Too bad some of you are going to have to work in the real world when Chevron cuts you loose! Oil company salaries are grossly too high compared to engineers and scientists in the rest of private industry in the US. I've worked in private industry... — read more 

We have another form to fill out for the transformation called the Job template one pager. Did management in previous rounds have to fill this in our just the worker bees in round 4?

Noble here - just got an email stating we won’t be interviewing, but will be able to fill out a “talent profile template”...any one willing to share insights into this process? Seems like theatre.

So, if I get left standing when would I be eligible for Unemployment? Would it be October 30? Or December 14? Or would we not be eligible because of severance? This would be my first Rodeo so I am not sure how it works.

Email from WEN today with resources for those participating in R4. Picture of African-American woman with boxing gloves with the title “Are you ready for round 4?” Uhhhh. There is no way I am the only one offended by this. No matter what color I am. — read more 

For those who make it, is there any guilt seeing your friends left standing or let go? Some are very good, I know this is a survival matter, but how do you deal with it that some really good people did not make it?

I was left standing in R3 in HR and it is a blessing for my health and sanity. Here are my thoughts on the people that remained and got placed. Most of them have threatened to leave Chevron at more than one point in their careers. Our VP of HR has... — read more

We’re an agile company that’s spent millions on a digital transformation, but we can’t deploy a simple job posting tool to handle our own layoffs. So, all of us will be browsing a 10,000 row Sharepoint list tomorrow morning to find our jobs. If that... — read more 

I’ll have to admit, I’m a little disgusted with their relocation policy. If you were relocated to Midland with Chevron and they leave you standing you are required to relocate back on your own dime if you worked there over 2 years. I don’t know... — read more

R4 jobs available vs how many people applying. Does anyone have this information?

Congrats if you bought Cvx ten yrs ago at $79.51. You have only lost about $3 with the close today at $76.35. Chevron may win a most woke company award but this stock performance is pitiful. We better select the best talent available in the reorg... — read more

Good news.....I landed a job. Bad news, it's a job that I did not apply to and with a terrible supervisor. I would have rather been laid off than work for this mo–n.

Does Chevron still have a pension plan in place ?

Need to know if I will get the bonus next march >:)

Just curious, anyone know of anyone who's left Chevron, but came back on contract basis?

Okay, I’ll be in round 4. They are going to posting jobs soon.. we were encouraged to apply for our own job, but in looking at the new org chart I discovered my current position will be eliminated. GULP! So I can apply to 4 others. ... — read more

If we are still mid career (and not old enough to retire) do we get an option to cash our pension chips? Thanks in advance.

To avoid any issues with receiving our package. Can we start a job immediately after being notified? Do we have to wait until our 45 day redeployment is done? Thanks in advance.

Lots of good people left standing at Chevron today following Round 3 selections...people who had given blood, sweat and tears to the company for 20-30 years. Official internal announcements coming on Tuesday, September 15. What a shame.

How does MW compare to his predecessors? I've only been with the company during JW and MW's tenures. What about compared to before them? In your 25-30year careers, is he the largest t–d?
