A Titanic analogy, Chevron, like every other multinational oil company, just hit the Green iceberg. Right now, everything might look good, but you'd really have to have your head buried in the sand to think that everything's going to return to 'normal' (i.e., the 'good 'ol days'). Right now, Captain MW and his crew are trying to figure out 1) how bad is the damage, 2) how much longer can we stay afloat, and of course, 3) what can we sell off to keep paying The Dividend. If you only need about 10 more years to make retirement (or another career), you're fine. Otherwise, get set for miniscule raises, no promotions, forced career re-direction, manufactured social trendiness, and ridicule from the public.
I found this buried among replies in an older thread, I had to make it more visible. Originally written by @3mxq+1badBquU.
