Thread regarding ExxonMobil Corp. layoffs

Houston Campus - what groups are short?

Hey everyone I’ve been at EMHC since 2017 and the waves of attrition have been accelerating in E3

Post if you’re seeing high attrition in your areas…

Here’s the areas my friends are seeing in their areas.
Marketing - cutting US headcount for BSC- transition is in full swing

Trading - high attrition due to workload and sending roles to Argentina

EMRE - attrition to tech companies and offshoring due to TMTS

These are the ones I know of, and will accelerate due to the insulting raises being communicated out still.

Any others?

I have seen maybe 5 times as many people quit this year than in any year that I have been at EM.

The trend in second half of the years is that people are leaving after getting recruited by friends that departed EM in the previous 12 months.

This is a trend that could grow exponentially as the more people that leave EM means there are more people recruiting their friends back at EM.

I’d say the cleaning, maintenance, and grounds keeping staff are short. Green algae growing on the sides of the buildings, flowerbeds overgrown with weeds and leaves, grass starting to grow over road, and bathrooms out of supplies. Are these departments being managed by the BTC too?

@1sms+1egmP6lq This isn’t some super secretive dataset, everyone can download and view it. And it’s in dozens of ppts, and it was presented on a few times by the LT to the peasants/common folk like us.

My supervisor shared their screen with me a couple of weeks ago and had some internal website open that only supervisors/managers have access to. Anyway... this site was basically a table of all EMIT job families on one axis, and the region/BSC/GSC on the other axis. Each cell of the table basically had a plus, minus, or maintain (can't remember the symbol for maintain) in it, indicating the target headcount for each job family at each location. I know it is no secret at this point, but when I saw the trajectory for U.S.-based EMIT employees, I knew there was no future for me at XOM (no top of all of the other many reasons to leave). It was minuses across the board for any job family worth being in, unless you have some bu-----t role that will only make you marketable inside XOM, and worthless outside of it in the real world. There is no DOUBT after seeing this, that management is perfectly OK with high levels of attrition in certain locations.

Hughes Landing checking in, some of us are being relocated to spring. The vacant spots we have been backfilling are being outsourced to India

@1diz+1egmP6lq all by design - I think that’s going to be most of what’s left in EMIT in the coming years - all contract/vendor/product managers with everything else outsourced

I’ve heard attrition in the supply coordination area is in the 75-80%?

Is it something in the base role, training, unrealistic expectations?

I’ve heard some of the traders are psychopaths who think they are g0ds gift to O&G.

Several folks have quit from BTEC and CAB in the last few months. Many of them with 8-10 years experience with the company. People are just not motivated to work for the company anymore. As usual supervisors and department heads have no clue. Their opinion is that this is happening across all industries.

Many supply coordinators have quit. Getting tough running base business. Lot of mistakes being made. People backfilling jobs who don’t have a clue what the are doing

We are really short in EMIT Upstream Uncon Product Owners/Supervisors/Managers. I attended a Zoom meeting this past week with only 13 Houston campus managers in attendance. We might have to cancel meetings if this continues.

How are we suppose to decide the next fun group activity with so few people . It's almost impossible to start the rankings for next year too, but we only have 5 darts to pick rankings, so that'll be worked out.

Some things just cannot be outsourced. B.K., Please help us hire more managers.

Goes into the pension calculation. It would be a small difference, but a difference nonetheless.

EMIT is royally f’ed already globally, they just won’t admit it. They’re bleeding talent from every site, not just the US. They will likely have to outsource even more than they already have, which, let’s face it, was BK and AW’s plan all along.

EMIT has some big losses. And this isn’t just in the US. The US attrition they don’t mind, but they are supposed to be replaced by GBCs and at the GBCs we had more attrition that expected. The recent round of raises for some GBCs is okayish enough, but still not great. For the US it was pitiful.

@xux+1egmP6lq Just wait until Jan 2022, you will see more post on LI. I am with you. I don't understand why people don't wait to get 2022 vacation PIL, but 2022 raise is just a number on paper. If you don't work for EM anymore, you don't get paid for the raise anyway.

@xux+1egmP6lq - good job opportunity didn't come very often..people have to grab it while they can, and while the job market is still good...if you wait, you never know how it will look like next year...plus, EM toxic culture will not change within a month....

I’m shocked at the quantity of resignations I’m seeing on my LinkedIn with vacation reset just a few weeks away. You have to been in a really horrible situation at XOM to leave before getting your 2022 raise and 2022 vacation pay in lieu.
