That wasn't as much for your accomplishments (I'm sure plenty) as much as it was for the manager's scorecard.
No offense intended, but that's the deal. Doesn't matter how well you performed or how much you contributed in whatever grade...it's all about the numbers.
Hang in there, the company needs committed folks like us to plow through the current uncertainty....
11 years until my manager pushed it for me after I had given up.
23 to 24: 3 years
24 to 25: 4 years
Currently at 25 after 4 years

It’s not much of an exception for external hires in the 2010 timeframe, when a number of MCP going and there was a need for talent (oil was well over $100 at that time which hides inefficiency).
Enterprise selection events in 2015 and 2020 created voids in a number of competency areas which provided PSG promotion opportunities for many.
The 2025 event was structured to flatten that structural overhang. The ongoing performance management process (2026+) is being tuned to prevent further overgrowth and demonstrate better fiduciary responsibility to shareholders.

Congratulations, your career is an exception to the norm at Chevron

In 2020 a promotion had been approved, but when my manager went to MDT to print details, it was gone. Her manager did not know what happened. I forget if they reached out to the HR manager or if I told my boss to not make waves since we were in the middle of the 2020 reorg. I’ve made peace with never knowing what happened, and I found at least two others who had the same experience.
It left a very bad taste and eroded all trust I had in this company.
22 (hired at 22) to 23: 2 years
23 to 24: 3 years
24 to 25: 5 years
I am still a 25 after 5 years. Not expecting a promotion any time soon.
