Managers can work hand in hand with SLS and lpo lpsa ocvm each other as much as often they like and NLI LI each other.
Technicians dont have time not interested in all these b—s— best practices and gladly willingly whole heartedly to pass all these burden nonsense for managers and SLS to enjoy have fun.
LONG LIVE CHEERS ENJOY TO ALL FELLOW TECHNICIANS

Now we have too many SLS and lesser workers, one day all workers will be PIP or resign, SLS have to get their hands dirty to do all the work. Would be eager to see SLS do all the work w/o workers. Too bad, I don’t have the luck to see all these

OVER hiring between 2017-2019 caused all of us such anxieties! Local management brushed off this topic without fail, because it reflects very badly on them. Integrity is missing here

First time joining the EMCC forum. Message from the President is a very capitalist view. Make $$. We beat competition! Record earnings! Good job!! Now let’s talk sustainability: err.....err.... Clearly shows where her heart is.
“Singapore, these are some great examples and behaviours of how you make an impact ....SOP1 PF?? heh? ..... yes, great earnings despite CoV19” .... and we reward our executives with big bonus. Good job! Thank you! I need to take care of ourselves first and then I can take care of you (by chopping the working class?)

As a 20 something, I’m not sure making money only resonates with me. Sorry.

It’s not a question of “Singaporean are expensive”. Good employees are expensive. It’s the number of headcount that is the issue and this boils down to the management of the Company. Is the Company efficiently and productively run? You pay “peanuts”, you get mediocre workers and the Company suffer.

Expensive is ok if they provide value. They are clueless when we ask them questions over telecon. Wonder what are they doing at site.

Bad times but but In any successful company, leaders have to build trust and partnership! Look around successful great companies, startup unicorns, people willing to work hard willing to generate ideas and they work together. Here you feel stabbing or threatened to be stabbed.. Trust is like I can tell everything I feel, what you feel is true although actual maybe not. Observe in daily interactions, do you have really open discussions on things say no to boss, boss being a boss not because he's genius or intellectually smarter, but because he can talk and have some courage. But what really need is great thinking capabilities, big heart big pictures, long term oriented, not self promoting not covering stories. Lacking of thinking, EMPATHY, but highly herirachtical, doom to react to NOs. In the long haul this create invisible barriers to build trust. Ppl do what they ask to do not they willing to do. Company fail not because workers not good but leaders. Agree ???

Exxonmobil simply treated staff as expendable and just another cost to minimise when the company is not doing well. So PIP is used to sack people at minimum cost and keep the rest in a climate of fear to sweat them and make them work harder and demand the moon.
Anyway the company key concern is
how to keep employees loyalty and morale after the disguised retrenchment. Exxonmobil don’t want employees they want slaves or servants.
It's so clear that Exxonmobil treated us badly, pays us the minimum and get rid of us at any opportunity thus not show any loyalty to us.

@2Imlc+16zEvLP3 Genius assumptions! Probably the only one painting this "problem" or been over-focusing on managing upwards? Learn to have a "listening ear and willing heart" and stay connected to us on the ground OK?

@2Hzpt+16zEvLP3
The problem is, when they get an offer after multiple no-replies and unsuccessful interviews, they are usually low-balled!
And why not?
If I am a prospective employer and knowing that you are bailing out of a sinking ship, I’d low-ball my offer to you, knowing that I would still get the best talent from an oil major, that money can buy.

@2Hzvn+16zEvLP3
I think those 50-somethings and older have already attained the lifestyle and assets they want/seek - like D10 FH landed homes (with mortgages fully paid up), multiple performance cars (bought full cash) and all their children having tertiary-graduated, high CPF balances, including gross surpluses in their above-RA accounts (accumulated over decades of 3-months-or-more bonuses, company stock options converted to cash and vestings from pension funds, etc.).
It is those mid-30’s to 40-somethings who will struggle with outstanding mortgages, car/creditcard/personal loans & overdrafts and still-schooling children - and they will be the ones sweating it out, if they get laid off soon.
I do not wish to be in their shoes!

Anyone feeling the never ending work piling in even though we are in a downturn? To cover those who have PIPed/quitted, more project initiatives to save more $$, more mangers trying to score point by squeezing more from the ground level etc
With these workload, I hope we don’t compromise on any reliability or safety issue...just feel like it’s a ticking time bomb

The company's reputation is like stinky dog shxt, no wonder promising young generation are leaving this stinky place. The older are not treated with respect for their hard work and contribution. Instead they were dismissed by the company unethicaly. The younger generation will not risk their future with this untrustworthy company.

I wonder if the arrogant “high flyers” reflect on their careers and realise it was their brown nose that got them where they are.

Since they don’t do actual work, all panic. maybe in their new job can start chanting Safety! Safety! license to operate! SAD. Maybe can take skills future credit to be monk

ExxonMobil, Chevron CEOs discussed merger in early 2020: sources
FEB 1, 2021 07:19 AM
[NEW YORK] The chief executives of ExxonMobil Corp and Chevron Corp held preliminary talks in early 2020 to explore combining the two largest US oil producers in what would have been the biggest merger of all time, according to people familiar with the matter.

The discussions, which are no longer active, are indicative of the pressure the energy sector's most dominant companies faced as the Covid-19 pandemic took hold and crude prices plunged.

The talks between Exxon chief executive Darren Woods and Chevron CEO Mike Wirth were serious enough for legal documents involving certain aspects of the merger discussions to be drafted, one of the sources said. The reason the talks ended could not be learned.
