My relief of still having a j-o-b has worn off and reality has set in. If CVX was trying to be forward thinking in any capacity, they’ve failed miserably. This model won’t attract (or retain) top talent. Who signs up for a culture that lacks flexibility, provides minimal promotion opportunities, limited resources, and maximum workload? Certainly not the kind of people Chevron will need to stay competitive. This reorg is a joke. This isn’t about not being able to work remotely (solely). My primary complaint is that legacy CVX professionals have been placed in “supervisory” roles (again) in areas of the business they don’t have the capabilities to lead. I KNOW I’m disposable. One voice amongst thousands, but I am just so disappointed that I’m back in a place of looking over my shoulder for the next best opportunity.

@ab I mean…responsible adults don’t quit until they have something else lined up. Don’t think people aren’t looking. For most they were just hoping to land a job in the new org and buy themselves some extra time. Especially those in San Ramon who have no desire to move to TX.

'There are other places to work. Get yourselves together, people.'
the economy is in the toilet and getting worse
and the labor force is flooded
Quit and go look for another job. Why all the cry-babying and belly aching? You think the people who come here for layoff updates care? this is turning into a woke touchy-feely feel sorry for yourself site. There are other places to work. Get yourselves together, people.
Every couple of days I take a few minutes to check out what’s going on at Chevron on this site.
Every day, I’m glad I got laid off the summer.
Good luck with all the bullsh-t.
