Worked at BP as contractor for 9 years and then came to Chevron full time. BP hired better leaders, managers and staff than Chevron and payed better. Chevron believes hiring the gullible and lesser quality engineers and teach them the Chvron Way and CPMS ... A monkey could do the job. Don't question leadership, don't stray from Chevron behaviors, or you are left in a closet. Want to be a

Critical thinker who thrives on improvement for the company? Work at BP not CVX. Chevron promotes based on behaviors, and not competency and results, like BP does.

How can so many managers be petty, unethical, and unskilled, yet keep advancing and thriving? They must follow the Chevron Way?

Not an easy choice.

Best? Demonstrated transparency, honesty, engaged with all as equals, shared successes, coached, held their hands up for poor decision making and applied lessons learned.

Worst? Self centred, dishonest, took advantage of hierarchical position in terms of favours from more junior staff, used more junior staff to complete MBA work, enjoyed being entertained by suppliers.

One became BU President the other got responsibility for looking after the careers of many.

Both were learned from.

There's more of the worst people at Chevron and only a few of the best. Those in the best column are really mediocre by other O&G company standards. Chevron better straighten itself up and find real leadership or else things will only get much worse.

6cnm: George, get off this site and do some work today for a change. After work you can go finish mowing Tony's yard. And make sure you weed eat this time. You know he likes that.

Worst of all time was G Chiasson. Always pointing fingers at all the other groups and never recognizing screw-ups In His own team.

Glenn was the best manager at Chevron. After the layoffs, he now manages Superstore.

-1gmn, You insult another poster, but have absolutely nothing intelligent or constructive to add to the conversation. I did not realize that Chevron had so many Hypocrite losers working here. No wonder they need to cut people...

@IVRppXp-1xjf unfortunate you feel compelled to post so often when you have nothing of interest to contribute. Consider giving it a rest.

Ya know what just makes me want to hurl? It's people who can NOT write a sentence without resorting to abbreviations (ie., LOL, IMHO, etc.).

Trying to be funny, then ending your poorly written, juvenile, and extraordinarily shallow post with "LOL" does NOT make it funny! It just paints the author as, pathetic.

Wow, no wonder why Chevron needs to clean up their shop. With potty mouth adolescent cowards like @IVRppXp-bfx working there, it's no surprise. Time to take out the trash, Chevron - LOL!

The worst is well-represented by a number of the posters on this site. It's just pathetic. No wonder Chevron is going down the drain.

Looks like the OP pulled 3 c---s---ers out of the woodwork with just enough time between sticking their tongues in the mothers a-- and fingering their own children to post 3 pathetic comments.

Good job OP.

OP, Who gives a damn about who is or was the best and the opposite? I was the best at what I did for over 20 years but got laid off anyway. Who gives a damn? No one and they shouldn't have to. Everyone only cares about themselves and that's the bottom line. True here and true everywhere.
