Thread regarding Chevron Corp. layoffs

@vk what he needs to do instead of creating AI cat memes is to just make a decision to consolidate all the fiefdoms within his own organization. So much duplication in his FE and Ops orgs, and all they want to do is each buy vendor tools, even the vendors think that they get to make double the amount because these luddites are talking to the same people and don’t even know that they are.

How's that "reduce processes by 50%" working for ya...0 progress

Maybe he should spend more time improving the business than generating AI slop cat memes.

RB's further ahead with AI than most of the people on my floor

@e6 he does spend a lot of time with AI. I’ve seen it firsthand, he knows the space better than most executives I’d wager.

The ENGINE comments were pure marketing though. On paper many of them are very seasoned, but once they show up - IF they show up - the skills often don’t match the resume. That messaging is just being massaged before it gets too far up the chain.

Someone recorded it but unsure if they will release the recording. He made some boasts about ENGINE and deals with Microsoft. General tone seemed casual. Talked a lot about AI coming across like he spends a LOT of time on this. There were some comments also about $ savings, and that might be one of the topics he might not wish to have on the recording, along with ENGINE hiring info. Honestly was shocked he shared that our ENGINE hires are more seasoned than they expected and in general really good because that’s not what we have been hearing from others or experiencing firsthand. Surprising that he was unaware that the meeting was being recorded.

So what was said? I missed it. Was it actually recorded?

Ten bucks says they don’t release the full video and recording

@bt
Big Guy money

@OP what position does RB hold?

"great in-sites" says the pot to the kettle.

So many great in-sites from people who can’t even use teams or outlook effectively

When was this? I must have missed the invite.
