The company continues to use the PDS to layoff employees. But they keep repeating that it’s not about getting rid of employees but just part of our continuous improvement process to help employees get better. They even state that most people that... — read more 

After my PDS last year, I really wonder why I’m spending any time filling it out this year. Seems like management will do as they please, even ignoring KO feedback and supervisor input. This place is a real case for MBA programs to study. There is so... — read more

Dear Employers, We don't want to go back to the office full-time. We save so much time without the commute. And we see our family more. If you don't let us work from home, another company will. Sincerely, The Global Workforce

If Democrats wanted oil production to increase why don’t they allow us to restart SYU? An average of 27 million cubic feet of natural gas and 30 thousand barrels of oil and condensate was produced per day (gross) in 2014 from three offshore... — read more 

Best quote of Uncon forum today was hearing management describe benefit of PIP and attrition as a way to refresh the workforce.

Do you rank people transferring out of your group? What is best way to do assessment as a supervisor?

Perfect timing!

Thoughts on the Permian Town Hall?

Isn't it a shame that a company that flags the biggest profit in 13 years due to surging oil prices, doesn't reward employees who mostly do double workloads here? I just read that Q1 results may have been as much as $2 billion higher than earnings... — read more 

They sure do love to move the senior executives around. I guess that is one way to not take ownership of failures you set in motion.

Do people who are let go after a PIP get unemployment or not?

We have successfully reduced our headcount by 50% since Exxon acquired Mobil in 1999. Are we going to continue shrinking headcount, or should we buy another energy company and reset the "structural efficiency" curve? Year Regular Employees At End of... — read more

I keep wondering what can make employees more valuable at EM. How to be of value to the company? Because, having expertise alone, judging by my experience, definitely doesn’t help anyone become indispensable here.

.....maybe it's against company policy??

Yeah, I didn't think so.

What hotshot decided it was a great idea to put the search bar at the absolute bottom of the homepage? It’s like we don’t even try anymore.

Does this enable the process?

Hearing rumors, how about other sites?

It is pretty simple. It is a forced distribution. Everyone can’t be Outstanding. 20% must be NI and 5% NSI. Those ranked low will villanize their supervisor and complain that someone else on their team should have been ranked low and they should have... — read more 

EMIT! We are core to the company’s success, yet we, the smartest in the room, are disregarded by the rock scientists

A company like Exxon, where pathetic non-productive behavior and zero risk/innovative behavior is rewarded, should be eliminated

Anyone know what is so special about the "Special lump sum pension payment offer coming soon " I got mail notofocation about today ?

Now I wonder what they will find to say that my performance was not good enough. Even if I did all my work perfectly, Exxon would find something wrong with it. That's how it goes here. They do their best to come up with one such little thing to... — read more 

They ask, so I will answer. Honestly. I'm ready to see their heads spin when we all share what we think about the corporate level decisions.

All I keep hearing about are PIPs, barely anybody mentions layoffs anymore. It would make sense since layoffs cost them money through severance and unemployment. PIPs end in firings, which might cost them unemployment, depending on the state, and... — read more 

Hello, your friend BK here, just wanted to remind you all that no matter how hard you try you will never be capable of doubling your salary out there. If you think you can, then good luck hotshot

My supervisor asked my team to force rank our team including identify who should be NSI, NI, etc. She said she would use it as input like KO feedback. Good or bad idea? I bet everyone on the team puts themself as Outstanding.

Just curious, Am I the only one who tells their neighbors I get free gas because I am an employee? It’s fun to watch them react.

I heard we waaay overpaid for our dry ho-e leases in Brazil. Anyone know how much more we paid than the second place bid? Anyone being PIPd for wasting all that money?

Wow. NSI reduced from 8% to 5% is just a smokescreen. 20% will still need to be needs improvement.

I calculated my xom salary adjusted by inflation. It' been flat since 2014. 14 years in the company. Two CL promotions. I have always been ranked in the middle.

Exxon has no intention to get rid of the pension because we will never have to pay it. We PIP you at year 13 or 14 so the pension costs us nothing. On paper we are one of the few companies offering a pension, but financially it costs us nothing. We... — read more
