The reason Board can’t says more about leadership pipeline than MW. What a POS this company has become. Latest move to copy Exxon’s strategy without its culture is going to end up being something that will lose multiple Billions.

I have never seen in my 10-15 years moral this low. So many high performing PSG 22-25s talking about leaving and hoping for EOI. 5 valuable HR employees have just quit in past 6 weeks. Tons more are coming as opportunities for growth are gone. ... — read more

If it happens, it will just be another attrition strategy. At this point we should all see ourselves as redundancies easily removed and, if needed, replaced abroad.

Is it just me, or does the job slate look somewhat light for 2H PDC?

When do people think that each BU will offer EOIs?

Positions in the ENGINE have been posted on Chevron Careers website. The job descriptions are a total joke as it seems HR put no effort in writing them. Lots of formatting and spelling mistakes. Also no specific requirements and very generic job... — read more 

Anyone else remember the absolute disaster that was the outsourced help desk initiative around 2014? I believe it was in India, too. That lasted, what, 4 weeks? They couldn't communicate with anyone about simple technical computer issues, refused to... — read more 

If I’m going to be abused, work overtime most of the days, suffer toxicity and some insecure and incompetent manager, if the job is going to eat most of my time and energy, let it at least be in a company which is going somewhere. I’m instead ashamed... — read more 

MW is out of control with his destructive behavior. His extreme outsourcing push is the latest. He is to blame for all the problems he had. We allegedly were going to Win in Any Environment after his massive layoff. How's that working? I guess we... — read more 

Maybe it's time shareholders hold management accountable for making money the right way. Laying off and outsourcing is not the ethical way to make money and shareholders if they want a decent country should stop that garbage. People like MW are out... — read more 

I've updated my resume and LinkedIn, but I barely have any connections. No idea where to submit my resume either. I'm trying to cut my monthly expenses, so at least there's that. To be honest, I'm not sure where to start. Anyone else in the same boat... — read more 

Why do we need PDR approval to apply for internal jobs in Workday? Why would there opinion matter?

How much of cvx stock do employees own anyway? Could we do this?

Do you believe some supervisors might manipulate performance ratings to shield their favorites from potential layoffs? What steps can you take to protect yourself in such situations, especially when HR and Ombuds feel ineffective?

How do fix it? He is burning the ship down

Is there even an idea of where’s the bottom we have to reach in order for a nicely compensated top to actually put some effort into coming up with a new strategy and at least try to turn the ship around?

We have had slogans, not strategies since JW left. Major international BUs have disappeared without a whisper. Still no coherent strategy. Very sad.

Things are going downhill because unqualified folks get hired or promoted over those who actually know how to push us forward. As long as nepotism and the good ol' boys club run the show, we'll keep going downhill. Simple as that.

Can you confirm the timing for the reorg in your BU?

If you are tired of this mess contact your representative and tell them to do something to stop the constant outsourcing. There will be no American jobs left except upper management unless something is done. It only takes a couple minutes and we... — read more 

Any thoughts on HR reorg?

Last I checked it was below $66. It is in line with Citi's projection and we all know what that means once it goes under $60. A big storm is on the horizon.

The company needs to take a serious look and review of the productivity impact of the various employee groups. While they're great for building relationships and knowledge they're encroaching upon actual business functions and goals.

Succession planning is the most important part of MW’s job. Our bench is weak and not obviously improving. Who are going to be the next in command when the opco leaders retire? They’re long in the tooth and the options are not great.

I am shocked to see the ABU PE PDR continues to undermine employees and cultivate a fear of retaliation against those who don't bow to him. He should prioritize listening over speaking when engaging with others. His poor leadership is very... — read more 

Planned to attend conference that required travel & was told no travel allowed. My coworker got to go to an event earlier in the year. Is there an actual travel freeze or is my boss BSIng me?
