If you’ve been here less than 5 years and find a job, jump immediately!
Chances are if you’ve EOI’d you’ll be asked to transition which will probably extended beyond your start date. You owe people nothing.

EOIs and severance packages are intended for older employees (where their packages are worth $$$) to convince them to retire or move on. Cost-effective to avoid age discrimination lawsuits. EOIs and severance packages for employees less than 15 years seniority are worth $, orchestrating and jumping to another job is much more cost effective.
I can't speak to OP or anyone else, all I can say is that I'm glad I jumped when I did and I feel for anyone still stuck in the Chevron machine. My pay didn't go down, but even if it did it would be worth making it out.
Transition haha. The company is pretty d-mb requiring people to train others on your job. They have it all figured out let the executives and ELT train people. What goes around comes around just a matter of time before ELT will be replaced and serves them all right.
It’s strategic… if I can convince you to find another job or EOI..then I don’t have to
Also posted in the Hess Board. Trying to save your job?
I jumped. Severance was worthless compared to my pay jump and the feeling of more security. But I know it's different for everyone
cvx salary is much lower than shell/bp
comparable to exxon
but once you are out of cvx, should be able to command 15 - 25% higher base salary
@a1 Large pay? CVX isn't even competitive with other local refineries and PG&E starting rates are $20 higher than CVX O&M pay
Great! You go ahead and do that as soon as you can! More actual real jobs left for the rest of us.
In the past several months I have been working with new MSP and Engine staff and many are nice but not at a experience level to train up at a rate to perform their new jobs in 6 months. I think Chevron management will be surprised at the slow ramp up time, but they made the decision to transition to new people using layoffs and transition positions. Oh well....
Good. Fu-k em. I wouldn't expect anyone at this company right now to give two sh--s about anything. Don't pass on any knowledge to those people in India, find another job even if they don't give you severance or EOI. They think with the large pay or dangling severance over everyone's head that we would tolerate all this sh-t? They need to learn a lesson.
