I placed you on PIP because i care for you and want you to stay longer at your current CL. If I promote you to your next level and you don’t do well, you will just quit anyways . That’s why I want to hold you at your current level so that you can contribute longer
Numbers for reduction is already out, matter of time when the excerise is carried out n how its carried out. Probably the uneithical PIP 2.0 format.
And nope, numbers are for FLS/Planner and below. SLS and above will be protected.
Not only buses will be cut, canteen food subsides will be removed as well.
I’ve decided to move on and have shared my feedback with my supervisor and HR. No regrets—it’s time for a change.
@7xpg you need to know that you are ranked last because your management doesn’t like you. Probably because of the way you conduct yourself which may lead to less tolerance to your small but stupid mistakes.
Su-k it up, this isn’t an exam where you are graded solely by your academic performances. This is life.
Change an environment where you can start fresh and learn from this hard truth.
@7xpg Do you think this is university exam results? Can appeal and try your luck? In the first place if you have a manager supporting you, you wouldn't have gotten NSI.
Please keep your dignity and just leave.
Does anyone drop to NSI/PIL/PIP and get told to leave within 90 days? Or can someone appeal their ranking by escalating the issue?
Goto/sprintsg ish da new trnd.

I will miss the bus, the seats have all my saliva from napping on the trips. Time to buy a new Q5.
No more bus for u poor folks.
Forced to go to Outram and eventually quiet quit. Not related to cost says the drivers in management.

Greetings everyone!
I'm excited to have started my career in the Oil & Gas industry with the Production Engineering & Optimization team at ExxonMobil.
I'm immensely grateful to my parents, professors, and friends for their constant support that made this possible.
Eager to learn, grow, and make meaningful contributions to the energy industry.

when people stop giving attention to it, they already made plans for what is to come next. Why hustle so much at work, let the LT work hard for their pay
Why no one bi--h about ranking result this year except for one guy ? Everyone okay or just anything alr since the system/promotion is rigged.
not once but twice, can smell from scp
CRISP still getting durians leh, can smell it from PAC
@7wrz we don’t even get oranges for CNY anymore and you expect free durians?!
This year no free durian?
I used to be ranked Excellent, but now, even putting in the more amount of work, getting stuck with "Good" or "Needs Improvement" has become the norm.
"Good" is a joke. It means you're the one doing all the dirty work—day in and day out—but you're not good enough to actually be rewarded for it. You're just the dependable donkey in a suit, carrying the load while everyone else takes the credit.
And let’s be real here: "Good" isn’t far from "Needs Improvement," which is the absolute bottom of the barrel. If you're in CL23-25, you're already in the danger zone, and you probably don’t even know it. You're too experienced to get any real training or mentorship, but not senior enough to get any protection. One budget cut, one re-org, and you're out of here. No one cares.
I once got a “Very Good” rating the year I did less work, just because I happened to present in front of someone important a couple of times. That’s when it hit me: this isn’t performance management; this is a popularity contest. It’s all about who sees you, not what you do. And that’s the brutal reality of it.
why surprise? drag as long as possible so we farm until the last drop
I am surprised that CRISP is not on-spec after startup. Hard to believe.
ExxonMobil advancing Singapore resid upgrade project towards 2025 startup
ExxonMobil technology to upgrade bottom-of-the-barrel products into higher-value lubricant base stocks and cleaner fuels
Increases production capacity of high performance base stocks by 20,000 barrels per day to meet growing demand
Expands EHCTM Group II base stocks slate with a new extra-heavy base stock, EHC 340 MAXTM
SINGAPORE - ExxonMobil expects to add approximately 20,000 barrels per day of light, heavy and extra-heavy lubricant base stocks when upgrades at its Singapore integrated refining and petrochemical complex are complete in 2025.
“ExxonMobil is introducing a unique high-viscosity Group II clear and bright base stock at a large scale,” said Todd Sepulveda, vice president of Basestocks & Waxes at ExxonMobil. “We will produce EHC 340 MAXTM using proprietary technologies that allow us to manufacture a product with performance attributes that differentiate it from other high-viscosity base stocks.”
The Singapore Resid Upgrade Project will expand large-scale production of ExxonMobil’s global EHCTM Group II slate to meet growing demand for high-performance lubricants in the Asia-Pacific region. This project will bring additional supplies of EHCTM 50 and EHCTM 120 grades to the market, and up to 6,000 barrels per day of extra-heavy base stocks, including the new Group II base stock, EHC 340 MAXTM.
EHC 340 MAXTM complements the viscosity range of the existing EHCTM slate with a base stock that is comparable in viscosity to Group I bright stock but allows customers to blend a wide range of high viscosity finished lubricants where traditional Group I base stocks use is limited. The new product is suitable for lubricants that require extra high viscosity, low temperature performance, high oxidation stability, high viscosity index, and a high flashpoint, which is critical for high temperature applications. Intended applications include gas engine oils, marine lubricants, greases, engine oils, industrial oils and gear oils.
“We are committed to deliver quality fuels and base stocks for high-performing finished lubricants as demand for these products in the Asia-Pacific region continues to grow,” said Sepulveda. “We also recently expanded production of EHCTM base stocks at our Rotterdam refinery by 5,000 barrels per day. Both of these expansions broaden our ability to provide Group II base stocks to formulators looking for more reliable product supply tailored to their specific needs.”
The Singapore Resid Upgrade Project will also enable the refinery to increase production of cleaner fuels, including high-quality marine fuels for customers to meet the International Maritime Organization’s 0.50 percent sulfur requirement. These include ultra-low sulfur diesel and products that can be further blended to meet shipping emission control area requirements.
“We continue to progress the project in collaboration with our suppliers and contractors,” said Khalid Ashraf, venture executive and project director, ExxonMobil Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. “Even through the pandemic, we successfully completed fabrication of key equipment such as our high-pressure reactors. Our focus remains on completing the facility safely and on time to meet the needs of our customers.”
ExxonMobil’s Singapore refinery produces a range of fuels and base stocks for industrial and automotive lubricants, and aromatics that are marketed within Singapore and exported to countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
@7wdr It will come once CRISP on-spec and proved out. That's when EM will thank everyone for their hard work by giving severance.
@7wda When will Singapore Study 2 results be announced?
@7w62 that was in the past. Industry standard is now 2 weeks per year.
too many process positions that is not required. RL in Process team? Day SS for SAR2? a waste of space and $
The last “good” package was 1 year 6 weeks paid to the GREF people when they transitioned to CBRE in 2017. Many of them are still with CBRE, some still working alongside us. Very lucky folks
@7w62 1 year 1 month
Does anyone recall the severance package details from 2021? How many weeks of compensation was offered per year of service?
Did the mothball SOP post got deleted? Wow HR really doing their job well
just listen to the feedback with a pinch of salt la, part of their wayang show. Better wear a mask so when you cringe so hard, they can't tell.
Vague, uncontrollable feedback like 'too competitive' or 'not visible enough' is useless—it offers no solutions, shifts blame, and ignores effort, so demand specifics: What should I change? and if none exist, accept that rankings are often political, not merit-based.
No daybus can buy car guys. Coe cheap now everyone earning at least 20k per month in Exxon. If u are not you deserve to be pip.
Must be some joker from the refinery side who thought that Singapore polyethylene plant is SPP.
Anyway read your contract la, it says 3 months has always been the norm but they never promise you 3 months leh
What you mean PP, PE should be the one closing ma, since they producing PE not PP
Huizhou chemical plant was reported to start up already with 1.6 million ton of ethylene and 1.2 million tons of polyethylene yearly. That is huge as compared to us. When are we shutting down SOP and SPP?
Cutting benefits while demoralizing employees may be pushing "quiet firing". Making staffs to quit to avoid layoff costs, bad PR, or union risks. Toxic leadership might want a leaner, compliant workforce or prep for outsourcing. High performers leave first, productivity drops, and toxicity grows, harming the company’s reputation. Employees should document changes, network with colleagues, and consider exit options. This tactic signals poor leadership and short-term thinking.
Exxonmobil Singapore is laying off employees part 2
After 646802 views, 2281 reactions and 4684 replies, I lay to rest the most epic thread on the layoff and give you the sequel
Go to: https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1k05735df +1k05735df
The best part for Crisp is, after ground staff put in their blood and sweat to it, once it stabilised they will start to PIP off people Hahas!!
This is the world class company ExxonMobil forever!!!
What is the status of CRISP?
I hear that the product quality of the heavy Grp II lubricant is not meeting expectations especially color.
Now they want to discontinue all the Day bus into JI. What kind of bs is this. People are paying $60 a month. Now all have to fight for the JE bus.
Really We Are EM
Time to shift the convo to a new thread or to this sub - https://www.thelayoff.com/exxonmobil-singapore
Seems like the platform can’t really handle so much activity whitin a single thread. The counters already not updating properly (still stuck at “last 13d ago”), no idea what’s going on there. Better move before replies start acting up too.
