Those in management circles what are you hearing about the quiet layoffs going on? Management seems intent on making things so bad for employees with the wirthless 4 days in office, benefits cuts and sheer arrogance from leaders. This American company doesn't care about America anymore. Can we outsource our CEO?

@aj honestly this would work
Why not cut out the middlemen in the C-suite and just have McKinsey or BCG directly make the big decisions at Chevron? Surely, McKinsey or BCG can assign some 23 year-old Ivy League peon to meet with the Board a few times per year and tell them how to run an oil company? He couldn't do worse than the current crop of boomer clowns.
that’s the funny thing about the C suite.
they do things like work remotely full time, hold multiple positions at multiple companies, openly discuss pay with each other, and maintain immunity to modernizing or losing their own roles
if us peons violate even one of those, we’re bad employees
We could indeed functionally outsource the C suite jobs as there are excellent executives in India at 1/5 the price in the US, but unfortunately the board shelters future board members and only allows outsourcing of peons.
Just out source the CEO to AI. Feed the CEO’s email, Teams and one drive to AI and let it shadow the job and make calls and decisions on its own. Then have a quarterly benchmark in this transition period just like ENGINE. I am sure the tokens will cost much less than CEO’s package. The board and shareholders will be please.
