Thread regarding ExxonMobil Corp. layoffs

Horrific Bosses

EM has the most horrific bosses. Where do they dig these people up? It is certainly not based on technical merit or managerial capabilities. No people skill, no business acumen, and no empathy. It’s all about supporting their own hidden agenda and squeezing more work out beyond what is reasonable. I can endure one bad boss for a couple of years. But several in succession was the last straw. The worst example was one from 4 years ago who told all sorts of lies and pressured me to cover up his mistakes. Then tried to sink my career to grab more power. After his promotion to my supervisor, he started acting like he is god. When higher ups are not present, he would treated people (supplier, direct reports) like garbage. I would never talk to another human being in that manner. But he puts on a good show of WAEM or whatever is the flavor of the day. A real piece of manure working in manure.

Doesn’t EM clue in on these absolutely horrific bosses and NSI them? Or they don’t care? It’s all about greed and lining their own pockets.

ExxonMobil executives could be far worse. Elon Musk could be serving on the Executive Committee.

If there is any suspicion that an employee quit because of a toxic HiPo Supervisor, HR will skip the exit interview.

No data collected, no action required.

EM never admits when they promoted the wrong person.

Do not ever expect justice to be served to a horrible boss. An Executive would have to admit to promoting the wrong person for that to happen.

Managers at Exxon don’t have skills that allow them to be employed elsewhere or at least nothing close to their current compensation.

So they have this unofficial club of playing the game and circling the wagons to protect each other when cr-p hits the fan.

Managers are not rewarded for their work and abilities other than spinning the corporate message down to the worker bees.

How many times have you seen a good employee and colleague totally change once they get in a supervisor role or even worse mid management.

But they make this choice for material gain and become void of soul justified on some self absorbed rationale.

They reward that behavior. It’s the only type of “talent” they are good at developing.
