Fear not you over 50 types because your company has a strict policy on non discrimination. Hope HR reads this before the ROMs in 2016. http://careers.chevron.com/global_operations/country_operations/united_states/docs/eeoletter.pdf

There goes 2016 productivity. The 2015 ROM was a massive distraction and time sink. Might not be any point in having ETC if they layoff any more people. We got rid of a lot of low performers in the first ROM but lost quite a few good employees too... — read more

Anyone have a figure for how many of the 6-7k have already been laid off so far? Do we include contractors in the 6-7k?

HR should get cut. Does anyone really know what HR does? Hell, they don't even know what they do. They're worthless. They have no impact on getting barrels out of the ground, but if you ask them they talk like they run the place.

What do we know so far?

List them!

My manager has been been horrible. 30 year manager - who probably have not taken management training in a long time – this person manages by intimidation and wonder why his employees are not giving them their best. Chevron is sooo old-school, so... — read more 

Word is it's approved. Does anyone know if it has changed at all from 2015 package?

Have they sold any of the F.M.T.s in west Texas?

I know I know blah blah blah Congress will never approve but remember when Exxon bought Mobil? And look at what chevron has been divesting lately. No assets that had overlap with Exxon. And with the massive staffing cuts... We're being pruned for... — read more

Here is the thread: &shell-oil

what a great company.one that actually care about its employees,,,at chevron where I work I get a 25.00 gift card,,and some Vaseline,,,i guess I should be thankful for that,,,the bosses get the real bonuses

Perhaps some positive news is finally coming. Or is it just more false rumors?

What do we know so far?

Does getting laid off mean we get released from the Non-Compete Agreement some of us signed?

Has anyone heard that I.T. was ordered to give more work to expensive IBM resources, while laying off less expensive other resources? Did this come from the CIO?

The nightmare multi-years Major Capital Projects (MCPs) have been sucking up dry profits from operating business units. Just poor executives' high-risk decisions like Las Vegas gambling.

Keep paying high dividends when losing revenue will not work for Chevron. It is just Wall Street's window dressing that will burst the CVX stock BUBBLE!

Has anyone heard that Obama is using the Saudi to overproduce oil to hurt the Russians' economy for invading Ukraine and for helping Syria?
