Thread regarding ExxonMobil Corp. layoffs

It's less about performance and more about politics

I always felt that as long as you performed decently you were safe. And it used to be that management’s perception of your performance was in line with what you thought about yourself. As time went on, though, it was less about performance and more about politics. Backstabbing became the norm. Cliques became the norm, especially in A&T where the head honcho knighted her folks with the STP designation, which in most cases wasn’t warranted. And don’t get me started on the former MAD guys with their huge inflated egos!
And now we’ve seen where performance doesn’t matter at all for the involuntary layoffs. Some really good folks are gone.
Used to be proud to be a part of EMIT.

MAD was an entitled clown show....didn’t produce anything of value but managed to alienate everyone else in EMIT. Talk about a bunch of divas that spent more time talking about how special they are than they did helping the company make bank. Goes back to our ranking system that degenerated over the years. Everyone concerned about the optics rather than actual measurable results. I don’t blame the concept of ranking, we have done it for decades. I think we culturally lost our way and as we did more of the wrong people were promoted. It was never a perfect system and we have always had some a hole clowns in senior positions, but the numbers mushroomed in the last 20 years. MAD is another example of bad management. Created for the wrong reasons, managed poorly with minimal ROI then claimed as a “big success”. Complete joke.
