I ask because someone wrote here that the external market does not value EM experience. Are there many more of you who think so? Despite everything I think about EM and how much the company has fallen apart in the meantime, I still think that the... — read more 

There are more and more reasons to leave Exxon. Of course, no one can know for sure, but I'm curious what others think, whether and how employee benefits will continue to decline?

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

Seems like most 5+ year experience technical path folks are topping out in the Good category. Anyone on the technical path make it higher?

I have an opportunity to re-join EMIT organization. I was laid off in 2020 and a know friend a colleague who still works at XOM recently reached out sharing a job opening they have and sharing that I would be a good fit if I wanted to return. He did... — read more 

XOM will never be a nice place to work until we stop "hiring the best" but mandating x% into low ranked/paid positions. Mandating a certain pay distribution is NOT a meritocracy. There is a serious lack of feedback against the people mandating this... — read more 

I joined EM for the training and development opportunities. The EM I joined as a graduate put me through a rigorous graduate development scheme, provided early job rotations that kept me intellectually stimulated and gave me exposure to subject... — read more 

#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.

Heard more buzz recently about another retention bonus or raise coming up. Please share the solid information you heard, like timing and percentage. Thanks

The fact that there are significantly fewer ‘good’ jobs to move up into. Org charts have been stripped. Everyone who has been working hard thinking at least there’s a bigger job out there for me, think again. They’re gone or in the process of being... — read more 

Does PIP start when communication of rank is made, or does it start in Sept when communications are due to be complete?

Thinking about joining Exxon to help y’all build that fancy hydrogen plant… do y’all wear steel toe boots? I see this guy doesn’t have... — read more 

It surprises me that someone still cares about the quality of deliverables. Why do you still worry about it? I understand, these are probably people who love their work and are perfectionists, but does EM still deserve anyone to care about this... — read more 

I'm currently torn. I hate the fact that no matter how hard I work and how good I am at my job I can be put on PIP because my manager is given a directive to "find" the low performers whether there are any or not. However, I do enjoy my job and I'm... — read more

How are all the internal mergers going after the April 1 changes? Any good stories about the best and brightest?

I received by feedback today, manager said they went in with thinking 'VG' with a case to argue for 'E', BUT, the way things "shook out", I received "G". Anyone with any insight as to how you go from arguing 'E' for your employee and landing at 'G'?... — read more

BTC is best

Was back in 2020 when EM immediately laid off my coworker who had just come back from cancer treatment. I always knew it was transactional, but that for sure drove it home.

I don't understand how age is a part of the increase or promotion process. Can anyone explain?

I am ExxonMobil. Make no mistake. But when the fella patching up my driveway mentions that not only has EM's asphalt and fake rubber prices gone up - but the quality has done down. Way up - Way down. Does this seem consistent with everything I, as... — read more 

But I don't want that, not even at the cost of losing my job. Helping someone is perfectly fine, but for my boss to order me to correct the mistakes made by his lazy favorite - that's not ok with me. I am exhausted from doing double workloads and... — read more 

Prices on average went up 10%. I would like the price of my labor to be adjusted accordingly. Anything under 10% is not acceptable as it would be an equivalent of a pay cut. You should ask for it too.

Do you find it to be a problem?

I’m in CL X in a ranking group that has CL’s X, X+1, and X+2. I was told last year during my feedback session that I did really well, but that all three CL levels in my pool are ranked against the same criteria and it’s tough for the little fish... — read more 

It's a tough environment, and the pay for represented employees is hardly competitive anymore. Is a second job an option, or a violation of any policy?

There are many conflicting opinions when I talk about it with my colleagues. What do you think, is NSI mostly dictated by age?

I would really like to know the number of those who, contrary to their original plan, decided to retire earlier because they can no longer bear EM. I would also like to be able to do that, but I am discouraged by the disadvantages of early... — read more
