I guess they’re scared employees might riot when they start getting those termination letters and talks. They will need how to evacuate the ELT from the masses lol
There should be an Enhanced AEOI
“They” can get closer to the numbers they project if they have an enhanced AEOI. This way, those on the fence will volunteer and they can project even better and lessen the numbers competing for spots.
BP also in "green" trouble
Compare and contrast Chevron with BP and Exxon's "transitions". Remember before MW took over how JW implicitly stated that Chevron was in the oil and gas business 'for decades to come', and how he wasn't worried about (investing in) alternative... — read more

AN ENGINE FOR UPPER MANAGEMENT
will probably do better than current mgmt if they believe that an ENGINE is the solution to regain lost positions.... Just move everything there.....
Hachetting of design engineering
If you work in a design/mechanical group that focuses exclusively on writing EWOs, latest rumors circulating is that these jobs will be heavily impacted by the new Engine group. We were told engine wouldn't impact positions but we were also told this... — read more

Give a break! The way yall complain about anything end everything going on wrong in your lives in spite of all laws and rules being made for and by white straight christian men is ridiculous. Anyone would think yall were the oppressed enslaved... — read more
PMP’s - why are we bothering?
Why are we even bothering with PMPs right now? Do they realize employees don’t even know what to put on there and we have to re-do it after the re-org (assuming we are still here). I’m so over re-work, paper and processes that don’t add value. I was... — read more
Competing with Mid-Management?
It is pretty much accepted mid-managers and many advisors are being cut. Will those of us in the lower 20’s PSG be fighting against higher PSG’s for our jobs? Many of them haven’t done our jobs (came up through other paths) but I imaging could BS... — read more
Chevron is at War
Let’s be honest—Chevron is at war with its own employees. This isn’t just a few disgruntled employees complaining; it’s a widespread issue that I see every day—in the offices, around the coffee machines, in private gatherings, and, of course, on... — read more
AEOI, should I decline busy work?
Got another job lined up that starts as soon as I have my official end date. My manager is conducting non-critical busywork as an attempt to survive. Do I go ahead with it or respectfully decline as I have no intention to stay.
Yall are unbelievable and tone-deaf
We all know layoffs are coming to thousands of people and yall are are complying that if you survive you’re going to be overworked. The whole reason why this layoff is even happening is because y’all want to be treated like royalty for the job you... — read more
2025 payscale
Someone has the newest pay scale and ranges? The avg raise was 2% this year, so should I just scale 2024 numbers ?
Competition per open role
From the talk of people around me it sounds like it could be 30 to 40 people in some cases applying to the same role. Maybe more. What have you heard?
Cloud and Agile Benefits?
The company went all-in on cloud computing (Azure) and Agile/Scrum. Cloud is a money waster in the long run. AI is a scam. And almost all IT projects are waterfall (not agile). Are those initiatives surviving?
Serious question - will Talent Statements even be looked at?
I mean there will be THOUSANDS of these reviewed. How much good can they possible do?
Chevron’s Dirty Little Secret
Chevron's legal team isn’t just protecting the company—they’re protecting the worst people inside it. Security officers who cross the line, using tactics like the Reid technique (a method banned in many countries for being coercive and leading to... — read more
AEOI runs from Feb 28 through Mar 10. Our IT town hall is Mar 5
Then there are another layer of town halls after LCs So basically we have maybe 2-3 days to decide on AEOI if we want to have any kind of information on what the new org is going to look like. How thoughtful of them to wait and do these town halls... — read more
Selection Process?
Anyone know anything about what it will look like? Same as with transformation?
“I’m in Cyber. Dont really do Cyber it’s just paperwork.” Literally what they said.
I want to vomit.

What is the severance plan?
We'll be entering the era of overworking
Once the cuts are done, the rest of us will be expected to pick up the slack. Considering most of us are already stretched to our limits, things will only get much, much worse. Those getting laid off might not be the ones getting the short end of the... — read more

STAC included in first round
Confirmed by a BU VP
A plan of a plan
I’m shocked, but somehow not surprised, how little preplanning occurred for this reorg. They are literally making this up on the fly, and basic details havent been worked through yet. Unbelievable.
Any info on Subsurface re-org?
Will JK remain as the VP? What about JM and JF? And the CTC GMs, any changes there?
On the Bright Side
With SR going away for IT and most people not relocating great idea to try to PDC in higher PSG positions.
Chevron has the worst middle-management
Middle managers typically promote employees who have the best fishing camp or boat, instead of based on performance. Several of the managers in projects will jokingly tell underlings that if they would be open to letting their spouse sleep with them... — read more
It’s barely started, and already the anxiety is through the roof
By the time things settle down, we’ll all be nuts. I wouldn’t worry as much if the prospects of finding another job were better or if the economic outlook seemed more promising. But the cost of losing a job these days can be incredibly high. — read more

First post here and I just want to say if the new CIO
doesn’t get rid of SAFE during this whole thing then there’s no hope for the IT function. It’s the easiest cut in the world to make, would save a ton of money, and help teams go faster with absolutely ZERO downside. If he can’t see that, and is... — read more

Another day at Chevron
Anger and concerns over relocations, offshoring, management blunders and corporate spending continue to spark frustration and speculation of the worker. Am I missing anything?
why is chevron the busiest board on thelayoff dot com?
