If you have a breakthrough idea of commercial value
and your idea does not involve use of any company resource. Would you rather quit XOM and start your own company with the idea, or would you commercialize the idea with XOM? Are people rewarded for commercialization within XOM?
Why all the negativity? - enjoy the retirement!
XOM was well paid for 35 years and now 30 years off to go on luxury holidays with a GREAT pension. Why all the negative comments?
XOM Involuntary Separation Benefits
When the XOM Houston layoffs were announced, a certain Upstream president boldly bragged about the benefits being better than those of the competitors. Is that true? Usually what comes out of their mouths is half truths at best.
I have to ask
How many people will Exxon have to hire to replace those who were let go once the time comes? Considering that so many of the best employees were laid off, it won't be that easy to find replacements on their level. My guess is they'll have to hire... — read more
Lab technician... chances of being able to transfer to another plant?
Lab technician... chances of being able to transfer to another XOM plant if I apply through the channels like the official website? If not then I will likely start applying for other lab tech positions. I understand the whole industry is hurting but... — read more
NSI too afraid to ask
I don’t understand and am a bit too paranoid, but if I go for the PIP am I also signing away my right to Sue like on PIL?
401K - cashing out at 50. (The Forehead Man)
Stupidly let a 20-year 401K lay easy and took my 7% match in kind. But it was anything but kind. At one point, XOM was 70% of this nest-egg. At 50, will be about 45%. All in one year. Price of a house. Cashing out if some more s—ers punch... — read more
Did I make the right choice?
In 2018, I was offered a role at Exxonmobil UK in Leatherhead as a graduate in the LNG team. I didn't take the offer as I had a massive fall out with a friend who got rejected after the internship at XOM and for some reason hated me because I was... — read more
Meritocracy at it's best
ExxonMobil's CEO and chairman received a fat stock bonus rewarding himself for positioning the company where it is today. By all measures of meritocracy, his performance was lousy. Meanwhile, hard workers who did their best every day to make a... — read more
Up and down votes meaningless

Better adjust your mindset now
Hypocrisy is endlessly complaining about a company you call inept and corrupt, yet complaining because they can’t give you a job for life. Name one oil company that did not have layoffs last year. You can’t. Name one company that doesn’t enforce... — read more

Red Flags at Exxon Mobil (2016)
This analysis was written in 2016 and while it contains bias, many of the comments are truthful. Most of us are loyal to a fault, but is this company showing signs of the next Enron? Greed & fear drove that company's demise. Is XOMs fate the same?... — read more
A culture full of hypocrisies
A few facts showing what kind of leadership and culture at XOM is: Advocating campus safety with all kinds of bs like enforcing holding the handrail, yet using management to threaten/force employees to go back to campus while ignoring the... — read more

How ‘bout them apples?
Any changes in UIS, RTD worthwhile after this mini-re-reorg? I can’t tell whether anything is changing for the better. Have you seen any toxic exec or manager leave?

Not sure why I took the position
Less than 3 years ago I took a position at XOM straight out of college. The recruiter at the time said I had the potential for career growth and that the baseline pay was the best in the industry - with possible merit increases along the way. Was... — read more

Layoffs before March?
How certain are we that the next round of cuts will not happen before March? I haven't been here for long so I'm not sure how's Exxon with sudden, unannounced layoffs. Should I be worried or should I try to de-stress for the next couple of months... — read more
Employee treatment
One thing I've noticed about Exxon is that the longer I've been here, the less appreciated I've felt. Other companies make sure to reward experience and good work but not this place. And then they're shocked when people walk away the first chance... — read more

Perfect time to leave after snagging all your vacation on January 1. I got laid off but that was my plan B. Hopefully a lot of folks decide to do it (assuming they can afford to be without work for a bit) because assuming your situation is... — read more
