Why must we push good people out?

I have worked for EM a long time, but I have never seen so many good people voluntarily leaving the company at the same time. I work with someone who is on a team, but is repeatedly left off emails or forgotten when acknowledging work done. I know... — read more

Nobody cares about quality of work anymore

It's all about getting things done as soon as possible instead of making sure it's done well. Quality work has been replaced with rush jobs full of errors. Most of this is because managers only care about how things will look to those above them... — read more 

Tell-tale signs of a dysfunctional company

This has become a very dysfunctional company. It depresses and demoralizes everyone around me. I think the list of all the dysfunctional signs would be very long?

This is a direct result of their pi-s poor performance evaluation system. People who create disasters because of their short sighted decisions, then brag about how they saved the day. They almost never run good day to day business and spend their... — read more 

Survey Results

The long anticipated results of the DW employee survey have come out. I just watched the 4 minute video where DW sits on the corner of his desk and speaks while delivering absolutely nothing of substance. Honestly, the video was so devoid of... — read more 

New DW Video

Looks like they didn't pay attention to the feedback in the survey people did a while back. DW says that culture is great and room for improvement. Overall the messaging i got was that the ship will continue this course.

Managers desperately need management training

If those in charge think it's a good idea to promote employees with zero people skills to managerial positions then they need to also provide them with management training (or better management training, in case it already exists). Lesson one?... — read more 

Opex control

Offered a promotion without a pay increase

The new position comes with more responsibilities and more work. My manager said I would be getting a raise in a few months, it's just not possible right now. I feel that if I accept, there's a possibility they'll think it's a done deal and never... — read more 

Two business flights cancelled this month.

Just curious, has anyone had a similar problem this month? What was the reason given? It's so hard to work when you work depends on the airline being on time and you cannot depend on them. I guess that's normal in 2022.

O&G company with the most inflated egos

What’s your current CL and Potential?

Your boss can see your CL and potential so just ask. They’re not supposed to tell but May out of kindness or just ignorance to the guidelines. Also who knows the review level needed to get to 38 potential ?

Why does the IT site suck so much?

Need something? Why not spend 45 minutes going around in ciricles on this clunky a-s site that doesn't work 75% of the time. I'm finding its easier just to call India directly and speak to someone there. Good luck everyone.

Headcount

Not sure if accurate but LinkedIn showed a 46% increases in business development headcount in 2 year for XOM. Sounds like a major problem to me if there are more business managers than people who can actually engineer and operate.
