I never heard what really happened there, but this group seems to be in the know so I figured I would ask.

Any ideas?

There are a lot of cuts going on a lot of reorganizations. Are layoffs coming? We are doing well as a company but MW does seem to want layoffs often here so they have to be coming soon to quench the layoff thirst.

Earnings release was published the same time as executive changes. Earnings aren’t scheduled until Friday. Someone messed up, someone in Investor Relations is going to get it.

Mike to stay until he’s 100.

We all know there are stories of outrageous behavior in our operating environments. People are human. They fight. They do stuff on purpose. 99% of the time incidents are papered over as "accidents" so nobody important gets in trouble. Let's hear... — read more

After getting laid off at 54 years old I continued with Chevron’s retiree health plan which I thought was pretty decent (maximum benefits due to age/yrs). Now the wife is close to 65 when Medicare kicks in (I’ll be a couple of years later). I’ve... — read more 

It bothers me that Chevron is no longer the innovative company it once was. Whatever happened to this company's innovative spirit, where did it go?

If you’re over 50…how much have you saved? How much is stashed and saved and how much expected from pension or lump sum? Are you close to being ready for retirement? How much is not enough to continue putting up with the B$#@!S&#@%#?

I'm sure there are plenty of options with the same pay and same benefits out there for all of you who are unhappy here and keep complaining. The rest of us will have to find the strength to continue without so many of the "best" people leaving, but... — read more

hi what is the chance to get promotion as proposed by supervisor and supported by PDR approved this year? seems smaller than last year as oil price is lower, thoughts?

Yet somehow, employees are still underpaid and we still have to worry about layoffs. Go figure.

I’ve seen many recent cvx hires who were ex-chevron, went to work for another major for a few years, and now are back with chevron. Can anyone share what chevron rehire policy is? I am ambivalent about working with these people.

Phew! Looks like the green wave has dampened a little. For another year we can fool around with hydrogen and biodiesel, and pretend we're "transitioning".

Any thoughts on how long the transition will be post close for the back office work (accounting, production, DO)? Assuming everything goes pretty quick since its not your first rodeo.

It’s been 10-15 minutes since chevron embarked on some sort of restructuring; will the PDC acquisition turn into an “opportunity to adjust what we didn’t get exactly right in functional transformation”...?
