A big MNC leadership is struggling financially but wants to promote the idea of extreme ownership? It seems absurd, similar to a father who isn't making enough money to support his family yet comes home to scold his children for not contributing financially.
Actually I hate company like kept telling us they not making money and etc… why wanna make us feel guilty? So they can cut our bonus as cost saving expenses??
Don’t l@n ji@o la what can a technician, engineer or any ground staff do? Cost saving or investment decisions were not made by the ground staff, it was made by those world class leaders who pioneer the extreme ownership!!!
You think Exxon open the plant here is for charity or with the intend to boost the singapore GDP?
Why the singapore site is not profitable and has not been profitable consistently after covid?? Is it because of the ground staff or is it because of the poor decisions making of acquisition??
This company will never turn profitable in the foreseeable future and will definitely close shop given the leaders of tomorrow still running around like headless chicken..

The issue we are facing is that we have too many second-line supervisors, advisors, and department heads. While they are skilled at communication and presenting themselves well, they are not delivering the expected work and results. Additionally, maintaining these positions is costly.
We foresee that SOP1 will be shutting down. SAR2 is planning to be sold as a package. Good luck guys!
You know what, only the plant is losing 700M$, HBF people are still business as normal and continue spending money like no man business, for example travel oversea for team building and meeting!
After China one start up , SOP1 will shut down sooner or later. EM is very eager to give PIP to employees to reduce headcount. The best is they make you stress and uncomfortable so that you resign yourself . EM doesn’t need to pay any package. Free lah! Big savings for the company. This is so called the world class disgusting company that unwilling to pay retrenchment packages to employees when EM is losing $700 million each year.
Hi, is it still a good idea to apply for Shell?
Senior positions like department heads and executives tend to be more insulated from layoffs. :)
Cost-cutting can happen for any company. As for Exxon, there are too few ground staff and too many "Management" staff. With or without them, it does not make any difference.
e.g. with or without them, the plant still startup and shutdown normally. we still go for turnaround, job pack technicians do, write procedure technicians do, check can do this and that or not engineer do. Planning or gathering info for applying waiver also technician do..
So why do we still need them? Applying for leave only??? The quality check on management that Exxon had is one of the worst I have ever seen.. when the ground staff works, so many pairs of eyes were there to see only.. Like staring at the job can finish faster like that...
Chevron is planning to lay off workers as part of its $3billion dollar cost reduction plan. Shell is planning a 20% cut in its workforce to focus on profitability.
Do you think ExxonMobil is safe?
@ oRfmh we are EM. This is the way.
2027 sg study 2 la, wait for the package, either tio 4D or tio Toto depending on how many years service. don't huan lo too much, just farm until then. Sing extreme ownership with the management
It's unfortunate that, despite having the same career level (CL) SLS consistently ranks higher than Engineers.
Ya. Sadly, these batch of SLSs have been underperforming and engineers are suffering because of that.

We were exxonmobil
If a company consistently places around 8% of its workforce on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) every year, it may raise questions about whether PIPs are genuinely being used to address individual underperformance or if they’re being applied as a tool to gradually reduce headcount. This approach allows the company to potentially reduce headcount without going through retrenchment processes that would require notifying the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and providing certain benefits to laid-off employees.
Using PIPs to reduce 8% of the workforce annually could risk regulatory scrutiny and reputational impact. If employees feel that PIPs are not used fairly or that they are unfairly targeted, they have avenues to report or seek recourse through MOM and TAFEP, which may intervene to ensure fair practices are followed.
Feedback can help the organization identify the bottleneck and we can get things done smoothly and efficiently. But now given the blaming and extreme ownership culture, do you think people will go and feedback stuff?
NO!!! why should I? Let it fall... Because the top refuses to see it, I also can refuse to see it... I will continue to use "IS it??" or "Well I am not aware" or "How can this be happening?"... it is so easy to say... and does it sound oddly familiar? This was the statement used by our extreme ownership advocator...
In times to come, extreme ownership will turn to Lifetime ownership!!!
Wake up la... it is just another way for the top people to say, we don't know how to do it and we also don't want to do anything just get the SH!T together can liao...
F@ORK the extreme ownership...
By glassdoor review: Morale destroyed by senior management. Arrogant Yong management and poor leadershixt.
If managers or supervisors use “extreme ownership” to avoid accountability, it creates a double standard. Employees see that their leaders are not held to the same standards, which can decrease morale and commitment.
True extreme ownership works when leaders lead by example, stepping in to support their teams, especially when risks are high. A balanced approach includes coaching employees to take smart risks, with supervisors actively involved to guide and back them up. If you feel risk is being unfairly pushed down, open feedback channels or discussions with leadership could help address it. Effective “extreme ownership” should be about shared responsibility, not just shifting burdens.
Farm hard with extreme ownership !!! Every farmer for themselves!!!!
yes lah id--t. it is going to war. you probably no job in couple of years if you don't fight now. how to tell id--ts singapore employees.
em now going to war is it
Laws of combat

HSBC plans to cut senior management roles but not junior roles. Darren really needs to reconsider this approach. However, our local heads all want to protect their positions first.
LOL INSTRUMENT SLS, that's too direct la. But then again, his dream come true for awhile in BTC, all his little indians around him
oEfxk+16zEvLP3 Sounds like the instrument sls that got sent back after practicing nepotism in sg.
This one cannot control one, given if they are at a high level position, they would prefer to promote people they can control… as long as those people below them were predictable, their position would be as solid as diamond… even when the company close shop, their diamond sit would easily earn them other positions else where 😂…
Their diamond sit were as solid as the game of thrones one 😂
It is true that Indian prefers promoting own country man. It is evident in the plant. Existing system does not red flag this. No difference from Tech companies to be honest
Not Darren Woods La, it's just how slow we start to go lean that's why this tc taking over stint is so aggressive these few years.
Hr or whoever also causing all these problems for us. Change the ranking system for what
Darren Woods ar.... please la Singapore close shop also like that... why does he bother? it does not impact him in anyway
BTC ftw
