It seems to be a winning combination of how to avoid burnout and succeed at Chevron. The most important thing here is to pretend to look busy. If you’re not one of those pretenders, expect them to just bury you with work until a total burnout. — read more 

Can someone help me understand the purpose of using the “expects more”, “meets expectations” and “exceeds expectations” rating scheme? Are these ever actually used for promotions or layoff decisions? I’m lost on what exactly I need to rank to... — read more 

Mike has recently being talking about bringing optimism back. Is that code for layoffs. Optimism to win?

The PollEV questions are embarrassing. "what if someone treats me different because I don't have a sticker" "someone without a sticker was presenting without a mask and leaders didn't care" "why don't I get credit for having recovered from... — read more 

I paid my teenage son to do all my compliance training this year and he did a great job! Better than I would have, for sure. He was happy too, with his compensation. I wish I had thought of this years ago - could have just brought my laptop home... — read more 

Texas Tribune reporting the first case of Omicron in Hou. Only a matter of time until we have to / should revise our RTW again.

It doesn't matter what we do. We are like tobacco and coal mining companies now, perhaps worse. Even if we make great profits, we will be hated and the stock price will droop lower and lower. Management will despair and resort to layoffs as their... — read more 

I've given my life for this company and you all should be thankful Chevron has even given you the privilege of working for them. How about you all stop spreading anonymous negativity and gossip and start being thankful for the opportunities Chevron... — read more 

What's the best place off campus these days to put in that OT? Get that job dun.

Our stock price has fallen to $112 today and generally we are suppose to have $117. Could we say some layoffs due to this? MW is very serious about his stock price being the 120's.

There is a small percentage of middle managers who tend to take their crew of truculent toadies with them when they move jobs. You have all seen it. A new GM arrives and within a couple months a few leaders from his/her old location slither in the... — read more 

If this is true, I'm not sure what to think about it: 69% of full-time remote employees say they have a second job, new survey shows. It’s another reason for CEOs to be paranoid about WFH. Second jobs are widespread, a survey suggests. -... — read more 

Who thinks the extra week of vacation given to

I worked in 3 companies in this industry before I came here, and I also did jobs outside of this industry. So now I can definitely say that the HR team is a weak point in Chevron and absolutely the worst when I compare my experiences in previous... — read more 

We might have our issues, but they pale in comparison to some of the other companies. I've never been happier that I work for Chevron - as imperfect as it is - and not at one of our competitors than when I read through their posts on this forum. I... — read more 

Anyone know what the basic multiplier is for salary increase and bonus? With the new PMP system, if you get “exceeds” or “valuable” or “expects more”? What does it translate to in $$?

It is no secret to anyone that the current administration is anti coal, oil and gas, and anything else that has to do with the carbon atom. The far left political extremists that are pushing a radical environmental agenda, that eliminates anything... — read more

In the 90s Texaco hired a slew of marginal MBAs to fill quotas after the 1996 jelly Bean fiasco. Did any of them amount to anything? Most I know quit after slow career progress.

As someone who was left standing in last year’s HR Transformation, I am surprised to see so many HR jobs posted externally. What the heck?

A recent bump in the Chevron stock price has Execs running for the hills after stating the high oil prices are expected to be temporary. They are voting with their feet. No faith in Chevron stock or their ability to get it to perform better. Pay no... — read more

In my experience, it's not safe. And must be used with great care and caution.

Thoughts about the new floor plan redesign??

Like any company, Chevron also wants highly motivated employees who give their best, as well as loyal employees who do not leave the company at the first opportunity (rather than waiting for Chevron to cut them). However, this is no longer... — read more 

Any news about the updated annual raise % coming up end of this year and for next year? I hope its not a sh-t increase, if it is.. I am packing up and OUT. I am getting under paid as is.

Exxon performance in the Permian is just average. The BOD is horrified and considering an exit strategy sooner rather than later so as not to be left holding the bag there. Chevron will be the only major left in the basin.

Any news on the upcoming SJV reorg? Sounds like it’s going to get ugly…

My answer: everything is taken into account, apart from what should have been the biggest measure - how hard a person worked and how well they did their job. Promotion is decided by people who, in my opinion, are not at all well acquainted with the... — read more

I don't work for Chevron and I am not a troll. I am just curious what this means from Chevron's point of view and is it truly discrimination at the end of the day. I would love to hear your honest (not smart a-s) thoughts. I plan on using this... — read more
