Well, I just checked the Chevron website to see what is happening with employment openings. All of these stupid news reports about the big upswing in oil industry hiring does not feel quite right. Probably 95% or more are for field workers, not... — read more 

Any word in the DWEP-GOM merger?

Would someone be able to help me answer this.

Saw this on a different board - it's a good one... I'm always reminded of this guest lecturer I had in college. He was a buddhist monk that was giving a talk about external forces and influence. He made the point that everything outside ourselves is... — read more 

No one who has lost their job is deluding themselves into thinking that they are content and happy. It is more that they have accepted the reality of their situation and are adjusting their lifestyles accordingly. Well, at least most people. Sure... — read more 

" It's just the right thing to do. It's very simple"... that just about says it all. If money falls off a truck and nobody is looking do you keep it or return it to its owner. If you can shoot a person in the head and grab their money with confidence... — read more 

Last month on May 31, 2017, I received my Chevron pension annuity payment. For the 24th straight month, Chevron direct deposited $8,778 in my account. Again, this is double the $4,389 amount I'm supposed to be getting. Ever since the first double... — read more

Some Jackass is starting new threads just to complain about others starting new threads to expand on old threads! Go figure ;-).

Don't reply to the clown who is copying replies within threads and creating new topics. Childish.

He has no concept of the value of technical expertise in complex projects like Gorgon & Wheatstone, so he casually reduces technical staff to "save money." I wonder how many technical experts you could employ for how many centuries with the money... — read more 

The chickens are coming home to roost. But Watson will retire before the shinola hits the fan, and he'll blame it on something that was out of his control. What a joke Chevron has become.

Why not have a 9 hour work day M-F and have a 4 hour day every Friday? That way, everyone will come to work every day of the week and still have free time on Friday to take care of personal business. Ultimately, it is up to the managers and... — read more

The 9/80 work week was great 20 years ago when it started and nobody cared about business as prices rose. But we can no longer afford it now that low prices are here to stay. It wipes out at least one work day per week, which is 20% of our... — read more 

All consolidation was headed to Houston. I was shocked when I heard this news, being a former employee. Any truth to this?

My position was eliminated in October 2015. I had health insurance coverage for through April 2016. Should I have received a 1095-C form to show that I had coverage? I am asking because HR said to contact Kaiser and Kaiser said to contact Chevron... — read more

Think about how much MCBU could be worth as an independent, without the burden of Chevron Management and processes. Lower drilling costs, lower opex, less red tape. Heck, it could double its Proved reserve base right away by following standard... — read more

I was layed off from Chevron just over a year and a half ago. I am in my 50's. I actually separated from Chevron to take care of my wife. She had 1 year left as her ALS was killing her. I had to focus on her and making her comfortable for end of life... — read more
