We need to flip this around. If the leaders want the hunger games, then let’s give them the hunger games. Push and speak up at every opportunity. Use these town halls to let them know that we’re calling their bs. Make their day worse than the... — read more 

Do you think it is a large number of people that pushed the AEOI Button with just a basic severance?

Heard a rumor that they announced new hires within their first year will be safe from layoffs which was announced at wells townhall. Is this true? Does this apply to other functions too?

In the past people would apply for jobs they knew they had no chance of being selected for, but you can't do that when all someone has to do is walk you in to a Houston job. At that point you're sc--wed. No severance. If your job involves an... — read more

Maybe we should write our representatives and ask that the value of engineering services from India to American companies should be subject to a 200% tariff?

Chevron talks big on AI, yet we still have no clue about digital. In fact, let's scale back on digital and fix the fundamentals. How about you, boffins, help Notepad from not crashing now and then?

Seems like every town hall is barely more informative than the last. You may only get one tiny tidbit out of each meeting. Hardly transparent or it just means they are being transparent and don’t have it figured out yet which is a whole other... — read more 

Why are they going to do, review thousands of those things?

Let the people see how many colleagues are fed up and hoping to leave.

That’s nice. Working 4 hours a week for the sla-ghtering of 20% of your workforce. At least pretend to care or at use Vas---ne.

How deep will the layoffs be?

While changing processes, workflows and organizational charts can help, they're not as impactful as having employees with the right personality and performance. If we want strong performers, we should select employees with the highest number of... — read more 

What would happen the employees in Houston that are a the global payroll, not the US one ? I think there are still quite a lot of them in Houston . Will they be switched to a US contract ?

Will they call people at home and tell them there badge has been deactivated and somebody will clear out their desk? I don't think IT people will want to talk face-to-face. given how cr-ppy this layoff has been handled.

Does anyone know if local employees in international locations (Nigeria, Angola, etc..) received an AEOI email?

Or only specific teams? I see some people on the board did not get it, so just curious.

I AEOI’d today. San Ramon, 20 year tenure, recently (Oct ‘24) promoted to 22. It was a good run but no way am I going to the swamp. Use the GO-441-1020 form if removing personal data from the network. Source in cyber says severance will be at... — read more

I'm a PSG 19, been with the company 11 years. This is different-ish than the last reorg. Without BU's, does anyone have any ideas how we function without reporting to specific functions?

Anyone going over to the Exxon layoff site to read what they’re saying about CVX and the arbitration? It’s interesting.

heard some got $3000, some $5000, wondering why different?

I was notified that someone expressed interest for me?

Anyone seen it yet? We had a watch party waiting

In 2010 the headcount was 60,000+ . Closer to 30,000 now. Soon to be closer 20,000. The outsourced offshore to India thing makes it easy to cut that appendage in heartbeat. The real value of CVX is in its assets and access to acreage. Little by... — read more 

MW put out the message that people should only be getting 1 maybe 2 exceeds at most. I watched managers hold to 1 exceeds regardless of if the performance deserved 2 maybe 3 for lower PSG’s but they dished out 2 and 3 for higher PSG’s and didn’t say... — read more
