18 months of strategizing and planning. Tens of millions of dollars to McKinsey. And this is what we get. It’s honestly impressive how this company still makes any money with the level of talent of leadership and “management consultants”

The companies good at cutting the fat don’t have to bring in McKinsey or BCG to tell them what to do. They know their own business and adjust constantly instead of building up to critical mass and paying tens of millions to outside consultants who know nothing about the company to come do it for them.
Wait, you weren't impressed with a 90 minute CTC townhall with no audio?
It’s * mind-bottling*
Chevron has an incredible ability to scare away solid performers, and hang on to (and promote) the inept and incompetent. Magnified after all the experience was EOI'd away in 2020.
@ad I am no longer at Chevron. Don’t get me wrong, my new company has some challenges too. But they pale in comparison to Chevron. The amount of disfunction at Chevron is easily 10x. And the speed at which Chevron moves to still make poor decisions and deliver poor quality work is shocking in comparison.
McKinsey is a great company to partner with - they paid $650 million to settle their role in turbocharging opi--d sales and one of their partners was convicted, sentenced to six months in jail, and fined $40,000 for destroying records.

Incompetence starts at the top.
Wish McKinsey & Company wasn't privately owned. if publicly traded, imagine the returns.
Quadruple upvote. It’s shocking. It’s the same everywhere though. Look at government. Everything is a dumpster fire. Just hold on to the paycheck for as long as possible. Spew bullsh-t to get the next job. Wash and repeat until retirement.
