So is CPP going gobble up terminals and lubes in this ‘“Infrastructure” power play?

Looking to hear from folks who submitted AEOI yesterday. If you're willing to please share the following: - Org - Location - Reason (career, family, not moving, retirement, etc)

Damn, those fat cats are just lookin' after their own, aren't they? PSG 26, gettin' three gigs a round? Bloody he-l!

I have not received anything that I am in scope. Does it mean my job is safe? I report to two layers of local management and they have their own priorities and I do not want to bother them with more questions. The HR BP is not helpful and I am not... — read more 

If the goal was a completely apathetic workforce that no longer cares about anything company-related, then job well done! I've never seen so many people respond with whatever, or who cares, or a variation of such to everything. Now watch them act... — read more 

In the HR townhall, they said the second wave would be similar to the first in timing, only spread out between August through October. If true, then the events would occur something like this, give a day here and here: In-scope notifications:... — read more 

It seemed like RS didn’t care at all, knowing he was retiring anyways.. or more likely forced to retire..

I’m not sure if I can get the severance packages if quit anytime before the selection event? Or I have to be at the left standing status to qualify the severance? Anyone has firm answers? Thanks!

Any thoughts? Any insight from somebody in the know?

The L3 org chart came out, and it is yet another totally braindead decision by Chevron. IT is cutting cost, offshoring jobs. Meanwhile, all companies that are doing AI are using high cost engineers and scientists. There are 2 big flaws with the... — read more 

Technical skills and decisiveness have been replaced by social skills and likability. Performance is not tied to delivering results.

I have some concerns about the new Subsurface and Exploration org charts, which seem to be adding positions just to keep the same number of GMs. Both organizations have not been delivering meaningful value and are imposing processes that are burden... — read more 

They notified the next org layer (30-28) this week starting Wednesday. All those left standing were locked out of office

To the auditors that failed our BU last year, Thank you for ruining our lives and causing fear. You say you understand how we produce oil, but that’s a lie. So make everyone happy in 2025, and press AEOI.

This is a friend of mine who helped me find a business to own so I’m in a position to EOI. Another option to finding another w-2 job. Advantagefranchisebrokers dot com. Good luck everyone.

What is the most recent cvx discovery that cvx developed? Farm-ins and acquisitions don’t count. I want accountability in the new exploration organization. 1 year. No commercial discoveries. Burn at the stake after 1 year of failure.

For people in the Houston area who are looking outside the company for new opportunities, there is a company that recently opened an R&D center in Katy, Texas. They are looking to hire process/chemical engineers, data scientists, SCM, etc... — read more 

Interesting how half the posts here are purely IT focused - as if anyone else in CVX even cares. Honestly, have zero patience for this division of the company. Every request for help is met with stonewalling, re-routing, or an overkill response... — read more 

If it helps, I used ChatGPT to help me decide. In the end the AEOI button was the only option. Hopefully CVX does the right thing, supposedly that’s what they always do and lets me go by August. Navigating Chevron’s workforce restructuring requires... — read more 

It seemed like he was being groomed to be successor for BB. Then they brought this robot LC whose sole expertise is offshoring jobs. Then he puts the same people in the boxes below him that got us into this non-peer leading performance. What a... — read more 

Decided to take the AEOI offer/option and it feels wonderful! Hoping there is enough like me that can get out of the way and lessen the blow on those who need to stay. Not a lot of confidence in the latest re-org since it’s the same LT in charge... — read more 

I’m located in San Ramon and I’ve been with Chevron for 10+ years my challenge is, we’re all professionals, we’re still paid to do a job even though this ROM has been handled ludicrously, but I’m really having hard time focusing and getting my work... — read more

Relocating to India doesn't necessarily result in significant cost savings. In fact, the overall estimate might be higher, and the quality could be lower, leading to increased maintenance requirements. Furthermore, Chevron's culture has deteriorated... — read more 

One townhall explicitly stated that performance ratings would not be used in selections… But we want to keep the best..? And if you say performance ratings are biased, then why do we even do it? Just as a farce to power raises? Or lack thereof? — read more 

That gave us the wildly successful chapter/platform model and Imagine IT design? This time will be different?

In past reorgs, there was some cutesy name for cutting folks, Transform, Accelerate Downstream, etc. I have not heard a name for the current culling. Anyone else?

I believe about half of IT operates this way—they’re glued to PowerPoint, Excel, or tools like CMDB ServiceNOW or other checklist tool. Their main job seems to be pestering others, asking them to do the work of filling out checklists, like... — read more 

10 years ago we had nearly 65k employees. Then it dropped to a 50k range. Then we got to the 40k range and it's trending even lower. What's the end number we're looking at here? How many people do they think they can run this place with while still... — read more 

Why they couldn't get done with quicker .. Make it easy for everyone.. don't pretend you are going to look at Talent card and sh-t.

It's crazy how the IT town halls start out with how amazing our org is and how we crushed all the metrics. We delivered their 200MM cost savings request in 50% of the time allotted. The reward for good work is supposed to be more work. In this case... — read more 

Of course they know what’s going to happen. Of course the org charts are already finalized or at least very close to it. They can’t announce what they are going to do specifically because it’s is going to be pretty horrible for the workforce in the... — read more 

Given all the town halls today, I'm surprised this board isn't more active with new info. Guess there isn't any. Surprise, surprise.

Right?

Funny that he says he has stayed at Chevron so long because of the Chevron Way behaviors, even though he doesn’t use them!
