I’m off to greener pastures. I’ve got a final interview this week. I’m done with Chevron and the year long mind games. I have too much self respect to spend another month on this nonsense. And I haven’t been with the company for a long time. But... — read more
Protests?
Any good protests coming up? Seems like the executives are getting off easy.
I have already been informed that my organization position has been relocated to ENGINE
and I have been recommended for a temporary 2-year BU base transition role, to train & support the ENGINE personnel. I am torn but need the money to support my family. What should I do? Will there be any animosity with my remaining colleagues who... — read more
What happens after 2025 layoffs are finished?
I was in a meeting last week that suggested there would be steeper rig count cuts in sustained $40s/barrel prices. What happens at Chevron if that plays out? Do we go through another round of layoffs in 2026? Other large companies are already geared... — read more
MW: Do as I say, not as I do

Selection jobs
People always say to apply for roles where you’re already a strong fit—usually meaning your current level. But I’m aiming for roles that challenge me, where I can grow and truly contribute. Who else isn’t afraid to step up and compete for something... — read more
Window Washer!
Anyone else catch KM saying her window washer comment is going to end up on TheLayoffs? The thought of our VP reading the comments on here made me laugh. If you’re reading this K….thanks for that one.
Pathetic Subsurface Townhall
That town hall and the comments made by “leaders” was the most pathetic example of leadership I have seen yet. Now that their jobs are safe they talk about accountability….JKs ridiculous example of the blue angels pointing at themselves and owning... — read more
rocky pillars
Investors hoping for meaningful change may be overlooking a troubling trend: familiar, ineffective leaders are being promoted, gaining more authority to elevate their equally unproductive subordinates. This cycle fosters a dysfunctional leadership... — read more
We’re bleeding contractors now as they jump ship to avoid all the work that’s coming their way.
We’ve lost three in the past week on my team, all from preferred vendors, all offshore. They know what’s coming and have decided it’s not worth the headache. It’s going to snowball.
Friendly reminder: recommendation on LinkedIn
As we navigate this reorganization, take a moment to post recommendations on your colleagues' LinkedIn profiles. Start with the positive reviews and R&A you've given over the years. Employers outside of Chevron deserve to know their strengths as... — read more
RBU TOWNHALLS
Post the news Denver! We need to know the latest!
Timing
CVX is clearly delaying a re-org so Hess personnel can take positions. If the plan was to not hire Hess personnel, why not do the re-org a lot sooner….
HSE leadership
Anyone know the HSE leaders that were announced? Can’t be the best we have
External Interviews
I’ve been interviewing for 3 months now, I’ve had multiple offers, waiting to see the org chart before I pull the trigger. One thing I keep seeing is that every company has India doing engineering work. They usually have a 4-5 high level engineers... — read more

How is that tech complex going?
Canada severance package
Can someone provide insight on Canadian severance package for >10 years of service.
What’s different in the IT org chart?
Announcements came out. What/ who is different in the new org?
From Human Energy to “you’re lucky to have a job”
Company culture from: Human Energy to “you’re lucky to have a job”
Colorado WARN list includes Chevron
Chevron has reported to the state that it intends to layoff 125 people. Are there any guesses where those people are currently situated?
Negative Vacation Balance at Termination
Has anyone been asked to pay back Vacation hours if their accrued hours are negative at the time of Termination? I have heard a couple different responses.
Going to end it all if I am left standing.
Posting this here as it's anonymous. I can't handle the stress of this painful reorg and to be left standing and laid off in this job market is not something I can handle. At least if I go, CVX has to pay 2X my salary in life insurance to my... — read more
Info and Insights Session 2 - IT Ops and Data
Getting this thread started early for tomorrow. A lot of hoopla on data & insights and that AI stuff, but I am curious about new GM KG and running IT Operations in India. Let’s hear this guy talk for the first time and see what he’s all about! — read more
AW making waves still??
How is the AW’s reign of te---r continuing to proceed now that he is somehow over DS and MS? He is the epitome of one who lacks self-awareness, empathy, employee connectivity, etc. And absolutely has no idea what employee empowerment is or what... — read more
2H timeline
PSG 25 and below outcome notifications sept 22-25
Desperate leaders abandon hybrid
Hate to break it to our feckless leaders but the company is not failing because your office workers aren’t warming an office chair downtown for 9.5 hours on Monday. It’s because your leadership is fearful and ineffective.
Wave 1 Timing for PSG < 25
I am hearing that people in the first wave will be notified verbally on May 12th and by email on May 16th. Also, that so many new positions are expected to be present that the Selection Reps may not know anything about them and you're on your own... — read more
ITFP Crawfish Boil over the weekend. Anyone go?
That must have been awkward. We are taking your job but have some crawfish!
USA jobs
Will they be reviewing immigration status or citizenship for USA jobs? Even if you worked for a year? I don’t know why they would . Ok
Life’s too short to spend years dreading every Monday
Ever notice how many people are just counting down the years until retirement, completely miserable but stuck because they’re so close to the finish line? I’ve watched coworkers who used to take pride in their work now just going through the motions... — read more
What’s the “Functional preview “?
The timeline says May 7 is a functional preview? What is that?
will my status of out of office hurt my chance to be selected?
I will have to be out of office after I submit my job posts. will this affect my chance to be selected since I will not be accessible during subsequent selections meetings by those management?
I’m afraid it’s going to end up even worse
More of us will be kicked to the curb because the outlook is bad, and ELT can’t manage. Far more than was ever planned with the reorg. It’s already nearly impossible to land a decent job offer, and I can only imagine how things will look in the near... — read more
when asked what to do during job selection notification if one has no access to computer, HR said, they will tell us when time is closer.
why Chevron cannot be more proactive???
SJVBU
Does any inside info on what's going on in SJVBU?
Silver linings
As morale craters, and quiet quitting goes to new levels, I’m finding myself…enjoying it. One of my bosses is so MIA, haven’t heard from him in weeks. Another is clearly just going through the motions. I’m largely left alone, and turns out I can get... — read more
