I do not think that I am the best and most productive employee, but I know at least 10 who are really lazy and do nothing, and yet they are not PIPed. Not only is it demoralizing, but it's also humiliating. I don't want to sound envious, but how is... — read more

I heard that corporate planning have reviews on what EM can do with all of cash they are making with making any upward structural opex changes. They don’t want to give us a pay increase as that increases opex: that’s why they gave us a 3% one time... — read more 

Anyone heard of any adjustments for Brits or aren’t enough of us leaving as yet? Or do EM just not care if we leave. They will say our comparator companies are not increasing and give us a heap of companies who we are not losing people to

This is my take from this performance cycle. Anyone else feels the same?

ExxonMobil Median salary is $189,082 and CEO pay is 125 times this. See https://aflcio.org/paywatch/company-pay-ratios

#Exxodus continues to be a problem so management will continue to scapegoat supervisors as the cause.

I am so tired of the constant demands to do more with less. I am done. Job search begins now.

A friend of mine just left for a competitor who offered a significant pay increase along with a 9/80 work schedule and more vacation. You can bet me and all our friends are looking to follow as quickly as possible.

Nothing for non Indians and an actual raise not just a one time payment.
