If the information is on an internal website, mention that. All you are doing by giving details here is telling other companies how low they can make offers to Chevron employees they want to hire. I want to negotiate with companies without them knowing exactly what I am making now.

You did give me a good laugh. Unless the HR person handling your interview is grossly incompetent, they know anyone from Chevron who has applied for a job is getting laid off
How do you think the benchmarking happens
McKinsey brokers the exchange of pay and benefits data across the industry, just like how they share organization structure data between competitors. It's already out there.
OP must be some HR newbie. Every hiring manager out there can find out the compensation package of any company in existence, just like landmen can tell you anything you want to know about your competition. It's their job. Paradoxically, the only people who don't know this information are the Chevron staff.
Aside from the fact that companies already benchmark against one another to remain competitive, you must not have been in the job market ever. They'll likely ask what your current compensation is anyway and then they'll verify to make sure you're truthful.
Ya I am just imagining the hiring manager of a reputable company coming onto this trash website trying to figure out the compensation to offer
Companies rely on analysts to offer salaries who have access to tons of databases with salary information. They don’t rely on obscure layoff websites to make offers. lol
OP is unprepared for the real world
need to resort to such lowly tactics
what a shame!
Once you get to psg 23 here, chevron pays too well. Unless you’re moving a leadership role in another company, you’re not really negotiating from a position of strength when you have no job
For the rank and file mid career person at Chevron, it’s hard to move because during normal times, you don’t want to move when Chevron overpays for what you do. Easy money. And during ROMs, you can’t find the right opportunity because you don’t want to take a pay cut and you have to actually do a harder job.
The only really underpaid people are psg 19-20. But even though people have been spoiled at Chevron. The work won’t get easier in the real world.
I make $203k, PSG 25
If you’re worried about other companies coming on here and giving a rats azz about chevron benefits, you either have not done this before or you have an overinflated self importance
No one is posting the amount of RSU and PSUs you get. Those things are also very standard at every other company. The negotiating is not about vesting schedules and such. It’s about the amounts. Let’s just say that unless you are a GM level, you’re not getting enough at Chevron to “negotiate” with any leverage.
Stop your complaining. No one is going to offer you the over inflated compensation package you are making now. Welcome to the real world you cry baby!
