Seriously, “Decision Intelligence Director”?? It seems like for every one blue collar job posting there are 12 bs office postings.
Christmas bonus
With our ebitda set to blow past what it was in 2022 when we got the hennigan 4,000 bonus at Christmas, will 2026 be another year we get a holiday surprise bonus?
Classic vs. HSA
I'm surprised the company even publishes the numbers, but they pay $1,160.12 per pay cycle for the Classic plan, and $1,024.71 for the HSA plan. You choosing the HSA plan saves the company $3,520.66 annually, and they give you $1,000 for choosing... — read more
SLC ROOSEVELT shut down
Crude fleets in Utah got the notice today that we no longer have a job as of Dec 7th One more Tesoro asset gone
So long my old friends
Interesting to see MPC cut St. Paul Park and Mandan loose. And so continues the long grind of disposing of legacy TSO assets. One can only wonder how long the rest of them will be kept around.
Incentive Compensation?
The Q3 earnings results say that corporate expenses are up $100 million primarily due to incentive compensation. Who is getting incentive compensation?
Health Insurance
I really feel like the higher ups understand us workers and have heard us. They get it and are here for us. Thats why I think its great during this time of huge profits they increased the insurance premiums over 20% to let us know how much we are... — read more

Findlay/Houston/SA
I see more and more job postings with Houston as the primary or secondary location. What do we think is going to happen long term? Do we really need three offices?
What's going on it IT?
Or should I say "Digital." Longer to deliver on requests, always needing to submit tickets to get answers on anything. Contractors everywhere. Seems (and feels) like a mess, especially since the rename/re-org. What gives?
A reminder
CEO to median employee compensation is over 120:1... keep busting your a$$
Executive Leadership Values
Just wondering …... Any feel if the executive leadership team privately plays defense for MAGA and Trump? Also, have any executives personally sponsored fundraisers for John Husted or Vivek Ramaswamy?
MPLx acquisition coming before end of the year?
Hearing whispers of a good sized acquisition that might be finalized soon. Anyone else?
Missed Opportunities
Questioning Maryann Mannen’s M&A experience / strength. There were rumors of a large Gulf Coast refinery acquisition that never materialized. Then leaked merger talks with P66 that fell short. These events happened when crack spreads were in the high... — read more
Is anyone's paycheck actually matching the rising cost of everything?
Because mine certainly isn't.
Special Bonus?
As the stock price soars and our execs are enriched wondering if our leaders might consider a special bonus like Chevron did. Some bread crumbs for the peasants
MPC & P66 merger
Just read an article about merger talks earlier this year. Nothing materialized and nothing more is expected to happen but it made me wonder what the combined company would have been like to work for after the merger. Having joined MPC from... — read more
Why is MPC no longer A tier?
I’m considering a job there so I’d love to understand.
How often do you change jobs in the company?
Just wondering how long you have spent or plan to spend in your current role? I have been with the company almost 20 years and in my position for a good portion of that time. I used to really like it. The last few years, not my immediate director... — read more
MPC is no longer an A tier employer.
Things changed fast. It's sad. Nothing more to add.
Open Positions
I see a ton of new positions being posted. Is this for real? They keep telling me we are not hiring.
The new slogans…honest thoughts
I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that our new purpose slogans are all these military esq phrases “take the hill” “run together” etc. who told them these were inspiring phrases that were going to get us all excited about our purpose? And I... — read more
recent leadership insight forum - no mention of hard doors..
thought maryann was going to drop a bo-b on us during the latest insight forum….no mention of this though, right? heard rumors on selling off smaller refineries, purchasing a new big gulf coast refinery…any more news on the pipeline?
Honest Question…
Where would Marathon rank in the employee survey of best Fortune 500 companies if they put it out in 2026?
Ulterior Motives
Any chance the last two CEO’s were planted by the investors? They both run this company like they want to bleed it out and then sell it to someone who may have pushed for them to get to the top.
Something big is going down soon….
Post recently deleted on purchasing a third Gulf Coast refinery and selling off smaller Mid Con refineries. Go back to January thread on the following post: Something is on the Refining Horizon.. Where there is smoke, there is fire.
New CHRO
Anyone heard any planned changes to HR or Communications with new CHRO?
How do overseas Wars effect any U.S.A. oil/gas refineries?
Likely those who follow any news or updates could think twice about ever working at a refinery during times of War. Companies know they will have to bump up the money to meet the rising risks in order to keep employees and have multiple quick back... — read more
hard doors??
what’s maryann talkin bout?? we’re making massive profits off of the war, i’d assume the company would be flush with cash. any layoffs or reorgs coming?
New purpose
Thoughts on the all employee meeting? Lots of pretty words from people that don't mean them?
Little to no layoff chatter
Should I take this as a good sigh? Or is it just the usual calm before the storm?
Fiona Laird - Chief Human Resources Officer finally sacked!
It was an arduous and painful seven years with her at the HR helm. Good riddance!
Workers who fall for ‘corporate bullsh-t’ may be worse at their jobs, study finds
Ever sat in a meeting where someone declares that your company is “growth-hacking” and “working at the intersection of cross-collateralization and blue-sky thinking” and called bullsh-t? Turns out you were right. A new study out of Cornell... — read more

Several S&P companies, such as Stryker crippled by Iran-linked hacker attack. Was MPC also targeted?
Safety Culture
I’d be curious to see what people feel like the safety culture of the company is today? Better or worse than it used to be?
YE bonus %
Looks like our bonuses will be paid at 143%
No morale marathon
Have to say, morale is as bad as ive seen it in a decade. Marathon has managed to take a happy and prosperous workforce and completely svck the fvcking life out of it. Gone are the days of site independence, now everything is handed down by corporate... — read more
Shell and BP got Venz Oil general license on Friday . Anyone finding Marathon Petro. yet?
Anything to do with oil seems to be going quickly to Venz. A race for the money. Chevr. already in the game.
BONUS
when will bonus for 2025 being distributed? Will bonus being adjusted (up/down) based on refinery performance? what are the benefits of being rated as extraordinary results/role model?
The new "Venz Oil" deals are in the air. So give your best guess on how it will effect M.P.
Excitement is brewing over the huge Venz Oil possibilities since it holds the worlds largest oil reserves. Temptation to move all assets there could be lucrative. Better make sure any new contract covers overseas relocation and exact wording in new... — read more
