I was privy to all the org charts guys and girls. 30% of the entire workforce is missing in the new org charts. This is for Houston and all the BU's. These org charts changed in the last few month drastically for the worse. I saw the preliminary... — read more 

Let's be honest, Most of you that got let go were shit bag employees anyways. With the boat anchors cut off maybe we can get underway again. Complaining on this website doesn't get you your job back. They took pretty good care of the people they laid... — read more

Gorgon won't be on line to mid 3rd quarter 2016.....a year from now. Don't let anyone tell you different. But it gets worse.....Chevron is walking a thin line. They may let the unions strike, to have an out to "Why has this project not come on line?"... — read more

Got let go today from MCBU, never had a 2- or 3 in my entire 20 years career with Chevron. Was I targeted for my age or for my high pay? I did not sign and will not sign any severance papers as I have enough cash to survive for about 2 years. My... — read more 

I would have preferred to remain employed but I think SJV was fair to the point of being generous with the entirety of the separation package. I can leave with no ill feelings towards Chevron and move on to my next adventure.

Today was for performance nothing about ROM, RAE etc. AMBU and CBU already went through a ROM. 25% whack. There will be a second round this fall for CBU and AMBU most likely closing the AMBU BU with an NOJV deal and cutting an additional 25% at CBU... — read more

If product prices do not improve, Chevron will make good on its statement: people are our most valuable assets, and have more significant layoffs. Worked for Chevron for 20 years and went through at least 7 layoff periods. Good people let go as this... — read more

Will they offer Retirement Packages for those vested…. seems like a opportunity for those tittering on retirement. Could possibly also help out the younger generation of employees maintain their jobs. Those who are going to retire in the next 2-3... — read more 

It looks like things have not panned out to be as bad as we expected them today. Now, the next question is what will happen in October and is that October ROM going to be so big that we'll forget about what happened today. I've seen many posts on... — read more 

Good bye to all... Laid off at 10:20 a.m.m today - Security uniforms all over, people scared but proud. It was very quiet. I will not be stressing any more, will spend some time with family and move on. I was blessed to save some money to get me... — read more

Any news? Thinking of all you peeps, and miss you

Seemed to be led by incompetent CVX kool-aid drinkers and a junta of semi-retarded baboons. Has anyone been run out of there?

I'm about 20 minutes from the office. How are things looking there on the ground? A lot of cars in the circle drive in front of 1500 and on the side of 1400 waiting to take people home?

You all should be ashamed of yourselfs for talking the way your are!! Don't any of you know the meaning of respect???

But we will wait two to four weeks before we make the call. We hope in some small way you will get a first hand feeling of what it feels like to employees that your attitudes, policys, and actions affect...C'est la vie !!
