People may not suffer in silence and isolation... But the masses will not benefit from this at all. Just wasted time and false hope.

Those you got PIP , you can approach TADM for help they advise and keep track of the numbers. Do not suffer in silence
Lol. So many bootlickers calling this a dirty layoff. You are getting severance and you are getting time to figure things out. It s—s that you had a comfortable life style prior, but there are many worldwide that were just let go without and additional money to stand on. Quit your b–ching and complaining people.
Only know how to type behind the curtain of your smart phone.. do it.. else take your PIL, and leave
Exxonmobil Singapore employees really need to form union urgently so as to protect yourself.
@5bbh+16zEvLP3. No company or legal counsel is above the law.
Wrongful dismissal can be heard by ECT

Mr. Ng (NTUC Secretary General) added that non-unionised employees of companies which are not unionised can approach the Tripartite Alliance for Dispute Management for advice and mediation services.

Dirty layoff, scum supervisors, bad leaders, silly lickers, poor management, unethical HR, illegal lawyers, bunch of cronies in EM Singapore.
The real employee out there, plan ahead for your life, the next wave is hitting hard and you may not be compensated 3 months..
It is obvious even retirees who worked their whole life being subjected to PIP, wake up and see this yourself, company will never recognize your business deliverables.
EM has the resources and Lawyers.. how to fight with them.. just take your PIL and leave.. those safe this round. Remember next ranking is in 6 months time.. you could be next..
Company in Deep sh–.
HR is struggling how to address concerns from employees.
Forcing Employee to sign PIL and silence them with minimal compensation.
Dedicated retiree felt deceived by unscrupulous organization.
EM, pls reflect on your approach before media expose and shame you.

who have been very helpful and responsive.
All the comms session they kept reiterating "Company is not retrenching anyone". Well, this is worst than retrenchment downright unethical.
@4yup+16zEvLP3 Do not get be started on WIN.. I wonder how much time is spent on those sharing articles... they could use the time to do real work..
@4yup+16zEvLP3 Second that! Worked very well for some high potentials, just add the executives on every platform and keep praising them! You will be identified for a great career!
@4are+16zEvLP3 - you’re 100% correct and I found that out for myself too late (not that I am much good at networking or kissing butt). It truly is all about “who you know” not “what you know” and about who you s— up to.
For years it bugged me that i had co-workers who relied on me for deep technical knowledge and problem solving, and they soared to CL 28 and CL 29 while I stayed at a lowly CL 26 (and even then, only somewhere in the lower middle third). I saw that these successful co-workers (male and female) spent nearly all of their time in meetings - and not even technical meetings - I’m talking mentoring, women’s interest network, United Way, all of the other Employee Resource Groups and even offsite “women in industry” conferences. Seriously - their calendars showed that they were in so many meetings, that they couldn’t possibly do any productive work. Yet they are still actively employed while I was NSI’d, because “nobody really knows what you do”.
I suspect that this lay-off has resulted in the loss of a lot of people who actually did the work and had the technical knowledge and skills that the company has always relied upon. If that’s the case, they are going to be in for a heck of a shock in a couple of years’ time.
Lay off is real
I have friends from PMTE who gotten PiP
Ranging from 20 years process FLS/Operator
Injustice at its best
What we are ExxonMobil. Best BS i ever see.
Dirty lay off! MOM should suspend foreign work pass privileges @XOM
Odd that expats are still here.. pity.. That’s why you need to NETWORK more rather than do your work well..
World class company, what a joke now!
No union , employees is in disadvantage situations when come to lay off. The company has many excuses to get rid of you in order to cut cost. Expecting more employees to lay off batch by batch after the SQUART!!!
Read your employment contract.. 3 months is not given.. its 1+option to give 2. So.. will they cut that?
Can someone advise what should encompass in 3 months Lump sum, does it cover LTSA & dental?
Poor company, can’t even afford to compensate PIL and honor the agreement.
Really shame on EMCAP!
What else can it be if it’s not a cover up Lay-off. PIP failed to outline performance deficiencies state only behavioural issues that cannot be measured. All deliverables achieved in past years not recognised and overturned by a simple answer, this is relative assessment.
Shame on EM, nice on the surface, rot to the core inside...
Need to lay off 50% to bounce back...
Down you go!
EM is using performance to retrench employees so they can escape from the obligation of providing severance package. Performance is subjective. Your SLS must be really good in talking to be able to pull up your ranking. You need to be good in talking and have higher up god father.
From ES as well, so far the communication from the top is no retrenchment, just redeployment. No mentioning of PIP happening across the functions even though it is happening. Good to have a high almighty godfather to look after you now. The trick is to know how to talk, don't need to know how to work or perform.
Don't be a sheep, look at the current and next batch of upcoming supervisors, they won't be able to develop our career, we are just numbers to them.
I think we have a case!
Copied from the post.. EM is definitely not Filling up the vacancies.. I hope the government withdraw the JSS
============
Singapore has a fair system. ST Dated 24-Aug
Employee is presumed to have been retrenched if the employer cannot show a plan to fill the vacancy anytime soon. Employer cannot side step the obligation to pay retrenchment benefits by calling retrenchment something else. Joeseph Teo warned the gov will withdraw the JSS and suspend foreign work pass privileges @XOM given >$40M of JSS.
Supervisor silence employee who speak up and voice their opinion. Supervisor feel the threat and worry that good performer will overtake their rice bowl, issued deficient PIP.
Hey, Supervisor, you should be the one who get PIP!
SG is one of the most expensive EM locations to do business with, rightfully so - decrease operations in SG. I know we have the largest refinery there but EMIT onsite and other business support should go. Transition over the KL where it's cheapest. Makes sense?
@XOM given >$40M of JSS.
Assume employees paid 150K/year all in average....40M pays for only 267 workers...thats 6.7% of SG workforce(~4000).....im sure someone in houston would say that this brings across a stronger case to layoff more workers to cover the JSS that EM would have to return!....20% maybe?

How are individuals' voices silenced? Aren't there channels or forums for Q&A with management and leadership teams?
Also, wasn't there always PIP? And it is up to every person to choose whether or not they want to attempt the programme?
Retirees, get EM return what they own you instead of taking PIP or MLRP!
People have been very uptight about this recently....are people really being let go through PIP in singapore? its hard to discern with management constantly making comments to sweep things away
Thanks to the supervisor whose core duty is to network with LTs, so oblivious she appears as a clown to her department.
It was a Blessing in disguise to opt for MLRP, don’t waste your time in a company that never treat you as an asset.
Retirees are deprived of their retirement package after long years of dedication to the scum company.
MOM should be informed about PIP in guise of Lay-off!
There are wayyyy too many people in Singapore...too many expats and managers
Vision 2020 - LAY OFF
Unethical company will get retribution soon, especially HR and SuperLicker(Supervisors)..thrown their staff out to secure their own rice bowl. MLRP is a concealed retrenchment, We are ExxonMobil is the biggest joke of the day, EM Singapore Union can hibernate.
The high management staff should take the lead to cut pay, not cutting the ground workers.
the way it is done is just unethical.
The way it was done very disgusting.
Out of no where. Lay-off is just a tool for justification. This is not a positive discipline way of doing things. End of the day, employee is of no asset to the company.
There’s a herachy of way to do things.
- Reduce the shareholder dividend.(Other oil coy done it)
- Across the board minus @10% of the base salary.
- What happen to the tri- patriate memorandum.
Yes. We do have a choice life. Good luck folks. Wish you the best for your future endeavours....
No matter how many A u get in the past is useless... once you kana RIP out you go
