Thread regarding ExxonMobil Corp. layoffs

Never stay in a place where they don't recognize your value!

A father said to his son , "You graduated with honors. Here is a Volkswagen beetle that i bought many years ago ... It is over 50years old , but before I give it to you, take it to a dealership downtown and ask how much there are offering you."

The son went to the dealership, came back to his father and said, "They offered me $10,000 because it looks very used."

The father said, "Take it to a pawn shop." The son went to the pawn shop, came back and said, "They only offered me $1,000 because they say it is too old."

Finally, the father asked his son to take the car to a classic car club and show it there. The son took the car to the club, came back and said, "Some people at the club offered me $100,000! because it is a very rare car and sought after among the members."

The father said to his son, "I wanted you to understand that the right place appreciates you in the right way. If they don't value you, don't be angry, it just means you're in the wrong place. Those who know your value are the ones who truly appreciates you. Never stay in a place where they don't recognize your value!"

Yes Exxon's payscale used to be good until recent few years when things start to nosedive. Despite quarters of earnings reported, the benefits did not trickle down to the rank and file in 10HC. At least, it didn't show in the pay increments nor the employee benefits that have shrunk over the recent years. Probably is a strategy to push employees from these regions out and hire elsewhere that is cheaper.

Exxon values us like the pawn shop. We are very disposable and replaceable to them.
I worked at a place that valued my work but came to the evil empire because of the money. I am now cruising to retirement on NI and nsi. I am NRE though so no pip for me until 55. The majority will never get any appreciation or promotions at exxon. Only the chosen will ascend at exxon. The rest will languish with all the others at the bottom. I have seen so much talent go to waste or not utilized at exxon over the years.
