With all of the cut and development program halts the way employees are represented was bond to be next. Moves will now be managed by your supervisors.

@OP… this is being managed by your supervisors — except, apparently, in WELLS, where HR continues working to accommodate the head of the snake as he declares Wells knows best. "Cut costs while launching AI everywhere." Do we really have to wait 1–2 years for the inevitable reset?
Meanwhile, the SLT / WDO / DOER class continues struggling to make hole for less, leaning on ineffective L3–L4 2026 PSG Chevron selections.
Five easy steps toward the future:
Step 1 – Let actual AI professionals manage AI.
Step 2 – If “natural attrition” is the strategy, then let the Wells sponsor go on tour and continue “naturally” demoralizing the workforce with zero functional credibility.
Step 3 – Stop accommodating org-model changes driven by “high aiming point” selections — also known as technical deadweight. Exit this endless loop now. The operating model is not the problem; the selection outcome is.
Step 4 – Remove the now-disruptive deadweight.
Step 5 – Reconsider WELLS technical engineering supervision over NMA — no more succession candidates, pls.
Just post internal openings and let people apply like every other company on earth does. The PDC was a massive waste of time and resulted in inefficient allocation of resources and teams comprised of people the team leader didn’t even want or pick.
@OP this is news to you?
Managed moves are better. The carousel just for the point of moving is stupid
Having a small army of PSG27 technocrats jetting around the globe having coffee with employees and asking them what they liked about their job then a boozy dinner with middle management was a colossal waste of money. Good riddance.
Good riddance. PDCs were stupid crazy, PDRs didn’t give a cr-p about getting to know you if you weren’t a friend (or enemy).
What? So I'm stuck in a job I never wanted if I want to stay at Chevron? How legit is this info?
The PDC was non sense. You have clearly only worked at Chevron.
I always thought the PDC was weird. No other company I know does this sh-t.
You get hired, you do a job for years, you get good at it, you’re retired.
Moving around every 18 months to three years, it’s just insanity.
