Sorry to disappoint, but we'd rather put you in mouldy building, expose you to spores "Last of Us" style. Maybe zombies will be a great catalyst for workforce transformation.
Alternatively,perhaps docking you near HF cloud zone so that all calcium ion your plasma dropped out and you start having heart attack or seizure.
As for premium offering, we'd love to house you near blast zone radius, so you get to see fireworks from up and close before you finally go #WAEM #WINNING

Leaving ExxonMobil in your 50s isn’t an easy decision, it was the hardest one I’ve ever made.
I walked because it was about reclaiming my worth. Never realized, until it happened to me, how many loyal, long-tenured employees are pushed into NSI, not because their contributions faded, but because of a process that undervalues experience and erodes dignity. It’s the company’s way of reminding you that their loyalty doesn’t extend as far as yours.
That’s when the realization hits: money alone isn’t enough. True success is working where your skills are recognized, your contributions matter, and you’re given the flexibility to live the life you choose - not one dictated by a corporation or a zip code. Even if it means earning less, that trade-off is often worth it for the dignity, freedom, and self-respect you gain.
Not everyone would make the same choice, but I couldn’t spend another moment with people that discarded my contributions so viciously. It wasn’t “business” it was personal and it was crippling. Happened 1X to me and that was enough!
This could be a psychological study: what are the thresholds when people stop returning to their abuser? #WAEM.
Good on all you that stuck it out: you’ve got grit! I couldn’t do it. Got my first and only NSI the year I turned 50 and was gone. Never returned to the office and moved far, far away.
No way could I put myself through that BS for the next several years. Now that I’m 54.5 and think about what I left on the table, esp medical benefits, I take pause. But, who’s to say I would have even survived long in that toxic climate? Or what my health would be like by the time I did retire? The way I see it: I’d have really needed those benefits if I’d stayed any longer!
Good luck to all. Remember, it’s not you - it’s them and a twisted system that arbitrarily punishes good performers to fit a quota, fuels internal politics, and undermines collaboration and morale in favor of optics and control. #WAEM.
Not a single person cares about me at Exxon... #waem!
I do believe there’s some Texas Evangelical prosperity gospel preached by ExxonMobil managers. They seem to think if I just “declare it” then it will happen. Like if I say “we’ve shifted thousands of FTE staff over to BTC and KL with no losses” then it’s true and will happen.
In reality - training and developing a workforce without consistent site exposure is like taking the worst parts of our business, throwing them in a blender and trying to enter it in Great British Bake-off. Everyone thinks you’re a fool, and not sure whether to think less of you or feel sorry for you being so terrible.
Seriously ? 10 years ago, would of been a resounding yes.
Now ? With the whole #waem culture war, PIP causing good people to question why they are here, an LT with zero empathy, good execs leaving of their own accord (TD in Chemicals), execs going because they don’t fit the plan despite doing what was asked of them (Big J) , deck chair shuffling with PS, need I go on ??
The answer was perfectly put by a poster earlier, F*** No.
@51xum+16zEvLP3 I can only say this is a perfect example of how the new PA system works! #WAEM!
8% will be here to stay for a while.. doesn’t not apply to managers though.. good luck worker bees. Because you will need it! Enjoy the “learning” process.. #WAEM!
DW needs to continue paying dividends and keep costs low to get his annual RSUs. Workers’ morale is not on his score card. Therefore, complain and whine all you like - that’s not going to change matters.
Suggest you spend time lobbying to join WIN or #WAEM change committee to improve your standing, instead of crying here.
