My team is down to nothing. One more loss and the whole thing collapses. Two roles were highly specialized. Never backfilled, never even discussed. Workload's a mess, skills are missing, and no one cares. Okay, fine, cut if you must. But could there at least be some thought behind it? Or maybe fix things afterward for once?

If BCG has been in already, Mgmt knows where they are cutting. Its if it when...

If BCG, was in . Mgmt already knows where it’s cutting …

i know of 1 so far but I'm sure there are more. Anybody heard anything?

What is the deal with the hatred towards IT at Chevron? Its pure he-l working here in IT as you are treated as a 3rd class citizen. We are the first for our ignorant ELT to pick on for cuts all while that advertise around Houston how they are technologically advanced and talking about how important IT is. For those who say we dont pump oil, try to do your job now without IT. Like getting paid, well software makes it happen.

anyone hear of cuts coming down the line, Intralinks is bleeding out and not doing the business it should and our office is feeling the pinch....

My manager said our team is safe, but I'm not convinced they actually know for sure.

Are there any departments impacted by layoffs today?

Very likely

I just heard somebody say he thinks more notifications will go out today, but I have a feeling he's just being paranoid. It's over, right?

The company's entire focus is reducing costs. That means nobody is secure, no matter what you might think or what your manager might have told you.. If you're thinking of relocating or making long-term plans, think again. This isn't a place with a future.

It was brutal for them today

That's it. that's the news.

If I'm on the list, just tell me. I'm ready to go. Give me the news already.

Curious how everyone's workload has been since the cuts. It's been long enough to know the real impact. My team lost just one person, so it's been manageable so far. But I wonder how teams that got cut in half are doing. How bad is it?

Or are they still at it? This was supposed to be done by the end of February.

State Farm just announced it made $24 Billion dollars last year and is going to pay $5 Billion in dividends. Most in history! State Farm is a Mutual Company and should never ever ever never make that much money. They have the best actuaries and investment people and know exactly what they are doing. That means they have been robbing people blind. Remember that the next time they tell you to do more with less or we don't have any money in the budget for staffing. I can only imagine what kind of bonuses the Executives are going get. Just like the rest of Corporate America destroying this nation. Sc-m of the earth trash!
