@OP the jokes are real and keep coming. Wonder where he’d go if he actually had to interview with a real company.
@fj Hi Mikes Mom!
All Executives are "all smiles" on public forums and social media. Behind closed doors, a President or V.P. or Executive will cut you off at the kneecaps if you are a person of integrity and you are telling the brutal truths/facts.
@aw+1k43hbcf0 thanks for posting, LinkedIn User 10 ... LMAO. Spot-on.
This would be my comment, if I was on LinkedIn:
- 20 years at ExxonMobil, filled with growth and purpose… except when you’re one of the loyalists who gets handed a NSI for doing your job after two decades. Guess inspiration looks different depending on your org chart. Ah yes, congrats. It’s inspiring to see a people-centric culture in action - especially for those of us who spent decades giving our all, only to discover our ‘growth opportunities’ come in the form of a PIP.*
Never met the man. Could not care less. Although it is funny how those commenting in public with name attached are positive (even if su-king up) while you negative a$$hls bash him behind the power of being an anonymous internet troll. Same as every other person who does well. Y’all are the real actual dch bags. Don’t worry the irony is not lost.
Mike is one of the best—this post is nonsense. He’s genuinely a good man and a true leader. This feels like unnecessary drama, and I don’t see anything valid here. The reality is that Mike has consistently shown strong leadership, and that’s what stands out the most.
Woww, what a self-serving doosh. The executives if past days would never behave like that.
Sign of the times, folks. Every doosh for himself

America is leading the charge of offshoring white colour jobs to India.

President and CEO, US-India Strategic Partnership Forum

A virtual address this morning at the 14th Annual GCC Conclave 2025 in Hyderabad, focusing on the theme of Building GCC as the Strategic Asset for Enterprise Growth.
I discussed the nuances of bilateral relations and highlighted the significant role of GCCs in fostering strong US-India relations.
GCCs are now a $46 billion industry in India and employ over 1.9 million professionals across more than 1900 centers. With 45% being US-headquartered companies and 50% of Fortune 500 firms, they have moved beyond support functions into product engineering, AI, and cybersecurity R&D.
GCCs have seen over 300,000 patent filed in India in the past five years, with US firms leading this surge. They have also become hubs for talent mobility as Indian engineers and managers rotate between US headquarters and Indian hubs, creating deeper people-to-people linkages that strengthen the bilateral partnership.
GGCs are ensuring the US-India relationship is anchored not just in trade, but in co-creating the future of technology.
Read through a few more of his recent posts. Proud to cr-p all over the US worker.
@dk oh?
I also had the pleasure of meeting MM (not) at one of the sites.
He is the right guy to make sure good American jobs get sent to india.
I was not surprised when I saw his new role.
When MM was at my site, other managers had to give folks a heads up before meetings regarding his behavior...
He reminds me of king Louie from jungle book
I just puked a little bit in my mouth.
These LinkedIn posts are textbook posts from "What Color Is Your Parachute?"
Like Jack Walsh at GE, we will be reducing headcount by 50% between 2019 and 2030 and public and government affairs will spend a significant amount of time encouraging their executives to post glowing reviews of ExxonMobil on LinkedIn and other social media platforms. That is why we have the We Are ExxonMobil (WAEM) slogan. In the long term, the only thing that matters is what the institutional investors and Wall Street thinks of ExxonMobil.
Jack Walsh was the golden child on LinkedIn for a few years, until the stockholders realized that short term gains are not sustainable without a long-term strategy, especially to retaining and listening to your subject matter experts (SME's)
John Francis Welch Jr. (November 19, 1935 – March 1, 2020) was an American business executive. He was Chairman and CEO of General Electric (GE) between 1981 and 2001.
His long career at GE has left a polarizing legacy. His decisions to adapt GE into a financial company have been poor for investors; and critics argue that his cut-throat work culture is responsible for the modern American capitalist philosophy of constant turnover and has decreased job stability in the United States since the 1980s. This culture has been adopted at many companies, such as Amazon and Uline.
When Welch retired from GE, he received a severance payment of $417 million; at that time this was the largest such payment in business history.[1] In 2006, Welch's net worth was estimated at $720 million.[2]
During Welch's twenty-year tenure, GE's market value swelled from $14 billion to $600 billion. Formerly he was commonly seen as one of the greatest chief executives in history, but his legacy is now more divisive. The finance division, GE Capital, that accounted for 40% of revenue and 60% of profit under Welch, was carved up as GE cratered after Welch's retirement and GE now exists in three parts. Several of Welch's proteges had ultimately unsuccessful careers at other companies, including at Home Depot, as well as the foundering of Dave Calhoun's tenure at Boeing.[3]
Remarkable!

- 20 Years at ExxonMobil: A Journey of Growth, Purpose, and Transformation
Completing 20 years at ExxonMobil is not just a career milestone, but also a moment to reflect on a journey filled with growth, purpose, and inspiration.
The decision to join ExxonMobil two decades ago was driven by two motivations: working for one of the world’s leading companies and finding a purpose larger than oneself. Over the years, ExxonMobil has delivered on both counts, providing not only professional fulfillment but also the chance to contribute to a mission of global importance.
For more than 140 years, ExxonMobil has played a central role in meeting the world’s energy needs. Today, the company is evolving into a key player in the energy transition, balancing tradition with transformation. Being part of this shift has offered opportunities to contribute to meaningful projects, tackle challenges that fuel personal and professional growth, and build lifelong connections.
One of ExxonMobil’s standout qualities is its people-centric approach. Over the last two decades, the company has worked to foster a culture that employees truly want to belong to. It is no surprise that some of the brightest and most driven professionals seek to join a team that thrives on excellence and ambition.
ExxonMobil’s impact goes beyond business success. For many employees, including those who have spent decades with the company, the experience has been deeply personal, shaping them into more fulfilled individuals. With 20 years of accomplishments behind and many more ahead, the journey continues with optimism for what the next chapter will bring.
