Thread regarding Chevron Corp. layoffs

How do you spot corrosion or a leak if someone didn’t program it into the digital twin. That’s why we need everything to go digital. Remove all boots on the ground and even remove physical plants. Everything should be theoretical at this point

Genius ! Remote refinery operations by college grad while eating a samosa. What could go wrong ?

The ops guy in Bangalore can't hear the explosions or smell the fumes when one of our refineries goes up in smoke.

People are not interchangeable.

Bangalore local talent is no where near the caliber of Bangalore talent that was able to compete on global international scale. Second tier is in middle East and first tier is already in 1st world commanding first world salaries.

You get what you pay for.

There's a sickening correlation between management "driving down the costs of doing business" while massively inflating their own compensation.

Anyone who has ever worked with offices outside the US (and maybe UK) knows that local talent is at best mediocre. MW has been sold a bill of goods that Bangalore talent "is just as good" as US talent, but at a fraction of the cost. MW and his successors will find out that just isn't true, we're about to kick off Chevron's commitment to mediocracy, which will result in less-than-excellent performance and ballooning costs through mistakes and re-dos. We are watching the beginning of the decline of Chevron.

"selling all of my stock"?? That's funny.
So you are going to buy some so that you can sell it?

Your post isn't entirely accurate.

Absolute insanity . Selling much of my stock before the company implodes even further

Starting to see more and more au revoir LinkedIn posts from ex CXV. Calm before the storm?

Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse!

Good luck planning and carrying out field inspections on the digital twin 😊

Indian engineers with no Chevron field experience, now over seeing inexperience Indian EPCM engineers.

I held off on my AEOI, but it's now time to leave as part of the stage 2 rollout!
