Doesn’t matter. HBF, there’s not a lot of changes. Young people still around, still motivated, working hard to be at outstanding levels. No reason for increments when we survey the industry, no one is doing increases. We are competitive. That’s what SCC is told. Now compete to win. Even GC said we need to be lower costs to be competitive– go and read your LCM message.

Alright – enough chat, now get back to work. Shareholders need to be paid dividends.

Young pple can't wait to get out with salary freeze. Did they look at attrition rate by CL or age?

Yes, salary freezes are more or less confirmed for 2022 too. Industry leading management don’t pay for themselves you know. What’s the king/queen going to eat when the peasants take some of the food.

SG workforce continues working hard,delivering results aligned with management expectations and attrition remains low.... with that strong reason to continue salary freeze in 2022.

@3Seik+16zEvLP3 Don’t fear monger here. Everything is going on fine. Step into HBF 8th floor and the office is still pretty full and bustling with activity. Went to the 5th and I don’t even see any space where I can sit. Shows you why 8% PIP is manageable. Obviously, there’s the reason why there’s no increment next year too. No one wants to leave and the company only wants the creme de la creme.

At least star awards don’t pretend that it’s a fair and transpsrent process, and make the audience go through training on how the process helps them.

I firmly believe that We Are ExxonMobil, together with this new performance assessment process, that will propel $XOM stock to $100 again

@3Qkll+16zEvLP3

XOM at $100? Either you're completely delusional or don't know basic finance.

To borrow the titanic analogy, the cost cutting is like dumping furniture overboard while there is a large, gaping h..e in the hull.

In this company, no one can do things alone. So for those people stabbing others be sure you use your right and intelligence to fight back. Get the right opportunity or hunt for such opportunities as nobody make no mistake. Then raise NLI/ LI use the tools in your favor wisely. But again if you have better way out to f......k off do it asap while you are young and have the human capital, still learning fast, not wait till you at 40s 50s it's too late.. of course that require challenge yourself, remember improvements need change, no change no improvement. Sound familiar to you...

Apr SCC meeting
1) SG EM attrition rate remains manageable.
2) SG EM compensation remains competitive from market survey and is attractive in retaining and attracting talent for a world class workforce.
3) SG HR recommends to continue salary freeze across board for 2022. Only to communicate during Sept/Oct '21 salary planning cycle.

Thank you m friend, @3Skuj+16zEvLP3 for your sympathy. I am sure our paths (and many of you in Singapore) had crossed in my 35+ years with EM.

You guys, take care of yourselves and stay safe.

Nearly 90% of those who chose to take on PIP in 2020 completed it successfully. Keep it up for 2021 and everyone can witness again whether this is true

@3Rnck+16zEvLP3, it’s not worth it. Don’t get yourself in ‘hotter soup’ and give them the excuse to ‘kick’ you out. It’s their loss as lesser and lesser good people want to work in this Company, if things don’t change for the better.

Actually at this stage whoever could have left for a better job should have left. Whoever’s left either can’t or don’t have a better offer- which means EM is still the best known place.

When the time come for em to kick us out so be it
Life will go on elsewhere my friend

@3Rnck+16zEvLP3 That is really childish and unprofessional. I am sorry if you were removed from EM through PIP or had been laid off. But please be reminded of the consequences of such statements.

Why can the worker bee stop working or create some plant issue, like the ship let the engine stopped. See what upper manager can do. They might just call meeting and depend the technical engineers to solve. What if the engineers also stop working? The ship will lost course and mught capsized in heavy sea.

@3Qgyn+16zEvLP3 I presume you are am exec since you mentioned or alluded your fellow peer left as an exec .. in my recollection . There is no exec being laid off this round though it was mentioned in the announcement . Those so-called execs that left are due for retirement so what lies are u trying to propagate ? You and your usual 25000 ft perspective , as usual , overlooked the devils are in the details . You don’t build the organisation, but rather the worker bees so that you could continue to do your song and dance all these years to the global Mgmt and climb. You really think you are that good ? Let us watch how u going to steer this sinking ship all by yourself or with your so called “ performing “ peers ..... I shall see how long more can u perform ur song and dance ... I am waiting to watch your last swan song .

Very fu—g sure @3Qrfk+16zEvLP3 that there’s no increment for 2022. But I might be wrong - there might be $50-$100 pity increments given out. I’m not sure if you count that as increment or not my friend.

He lost his face authority when its our turn to demand check on his permit

Come on ! The pigs love to eat. Pigs are greedy .... the rest of the animals can go hungry but not the pigs. Otherwise how to maintain that size . Don’t you guys learn anything from animal farm? Having said , the f-t pigs will end up on the dining table one day.... life comes in one full cycle. There is a karma saying , “ one tree can make into many match sticks but one match stick can destroy the entire Forrest “ . Don’t devalue or hurt anyone in this life . You may be powerful today but time is time is more powerful than you. You might think you have the wealth ... but karma will rob your health ...

Responding to @3Qgyn+16zEvLP3

Dear EM Manager, yes you are right that the “door is always open”. Have you ever thought of those who had worked for 30+ years and more and under the “assurance” understanding that the Company had been telling us that EM is a place for long-term career and they value good people. How do you expect such folks to “walk out” and start all over again?. Now all of a sudden, there is a huge lay-off exercise and this is made worst without the industry practice of retrenchment payouts to tie them for a while as they seek employment elsewhere or help them financially in the short term. The folks laid off are not poor performers and they are forced to leave under the PIP/NSI disguise. How can this be that EM boasts of hiring the best in the market and there are suddenly so many poor performers. What has gone wrong here, please enlighten us?

For the “open-door” policy, as EM want to adopt, then the Company need to be honest and make it clear during recruitment that the they will lay-off the bottom x% every now and then when business is bad and without compensation. Then you see what type employees will you get.
When one works for a company, there should be job security as long as he/she performs and has been told during the yearly assessment. No one seek employment for a Company like what EM is now, notoriously known for. I will not even dare to recommend any young and good guys to join EM now, which I would have strongly recommend in the past. It’s a very sad recent development that has changed my working experience in EM for over 35+ years, where i truly believed EM and proud to work for then.

The frustration we all feel is to ‘f–e-warm’ the younger folks not to rely on EM for long term employment and move on to more secure jobs after having been trained by EM, which the industry will welcome the “best” with open arms.

Wish to clarify - IMHO = in my humble opinion right?

It’s funny - because therein lies the oxymoron. You can’t be a humble EM manager. You are either humble or you are an EM manager. Suppose you are the latter.

I have to agree the level of saltiness in this forum has far exceeded the saltiness of the rubbish chicken chop rice dished out by Killiney’s at HBF.

I am an EM manager and have read the posts in this forum with much amusement (rather than chagrin).
Most of the issues raised are petty and personal.
Very myopic and narrow-minded views, IMHO.
If you want to really make it in life, or career, you’d need to step back and look at the larger scheme of things.
A fellow executive colleague of mine did the right thing, to jump ship and got a 25-month (max) compensation, for doing that!
The door is always open for anyone to leave, if he/she is unhappy with how things had turned out.

What’s wrong with GC seen dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant?
It certainly befits her salary and status as Chairman and MD of EMAPPL, and the Executive VP of EXTAP!
Do I sense some saltiness amongst her underlings here in this forum?
