Wow, that rumor about Reserves being outsourced to RS was taken down in less then an hour. Must of hit a nerve!

If so, why has office morale returned to the low levels and stress returned to the high levels seen in the ROMs? The recent employee survey is revealing significant job dissatisfaction despite staff resilience in the wake of the price downturn. Will... — read more 

Do any of you layoff victims miss the 1400 or 1500 cafeteria? Food is pretty good there and prices are lower than anywhere downtown. You like 1400 or 1500 better? I'm sort of surprised sometimes at how many employees appear to be lounging around the... — read more 

With CUE marketing off most of their North Sea, Aberdeen assets, who would be the most favoured buyer?

Can someone chime in on the costs? Thanks.

ITC Reorg is coming... Hold your ankles

I have gained little from completing the Horizons program. Disillusioned with Chevron's mismanagement of young engineers' careers, I left the company soon after. In hindsight, I wish that when leaving school I had the insight to go work for an... — read more 

How does that make sense? How many ubdrilled locations do they have in the Permian? How is it better to buy stock than to invest in 80% ROR projects?

The supervisors and managers who don't have the stomach to see the candid discussions on this board, but cannot refrain from visiting it and bullying those who post, should take note their nastiness is a pure reflection of their actual management... — read more 

Hows it going in ABU? Has axing started?

Chevron seems excessively democratic most of the time. People with high ratings (consistent 1 performers) get promoted. People with 2- or 3 are the first to be laid off, followed by benchmark 2s. Any high performers laid off (or fired)?

Finally some good news. Giving that Mexico has a fairly large market with big demands for oil and the fact that it just opened it to foreign companies, I’m sure getting there on time will benefit us a lot in the long run... — read more 

A portion of the company has had WorkPlace rolled out to them. I think at the executive level, they post messages that are very intentional and planned out with some cadence. That's not a bad addition to the company, honestly. On the other extreme... — read more 

Any thoughts?

As everyone knows, Rosebank is still being worked up with FID in Q1 2019. What is everyones thought on this project? Is it going to get the green light or not as the case may be? CVX recently said 'Rosebank' was not part of the asset sales in CUE... — read more 

While doing a comparison of other majors, consulting and Chevron - it seems Chevron is really behind in salary increases and market value for those folks who are actually capable of changing the way the company truly works. We continue to lose our... — read more 

Individual performance does not matter. Last year, they promoted everyone until pay grade 24. Recall double promotion. This year, they plan not to promote anyone from that group at all. Insightful way of motivating the workforce. All decided by the... — read more 

Are folks being suspended and fired for violating security policy? What gives?

At what PSG do employees start obtaining equity bonuses? I heard it was 26 ? Also what is the average pay for the following PSGs. 28 27 26 25 24 23

Anyone know what this meeting is about. Possibly selling some or all of the business unit? Nothing would suprise me now days.

How is it that PRC can not manage the Harvey tunnel repair MCP without massive delays and huge cost overruns? I went underground for a troglodytic lunch today and was shocked and appalled to find the Chevron tunnels still under repair from Harvey a... — read more 

With the QAnon take over of the board of directors, expect another ROM before the storm.

Whats happening in ABU? Has ROM started? How many will be let go?

The more things change the more they stay the same it appears. As reorgs are taking shape it appears that the old saw of saving money by outsourcing is in vogue. Not withstanding certain employees, do 'partners' really care about the bottom line as... — read more 

The salary realignment this year put many employees at the same pay grade level as their managers, who didn't get a promotion. Would this cause a problem at ranking? Seems that a lot of managers have resentment toward this and may intentionally rank... — read more 

Turning the reins over to a contractor to function as a team lead with the ability to interview, hire and fire other contractors has been shown to be a huge mistake. There are people in positions of leadership who do not see a problem with a... — read more 

I was just an expendable contractor who got expended in 2016. I was too old to continue any type of job in the oil biz, so I moved out of state far away. Occasionally one of those 'doer' Chevron ads comes on tv or the radio. I was hoping those had... — read more 

Earlier info on job cuts in ABU is incorrect. There are no job cuts.

I think everyone can agree Watson was an absolute disaster as a CEO, but the early years of his reign of terror were covered up by high oil prices. Imagine how bad the downturn would have been if Kirkland was CEO. Holy moly, the company would be bust... — read more 

How is it going ? I hear rumors of more changes in the works.....

10+ year employee here. Wondering why this company is so hell bent on divesting. Upstream, Downstream, Midstream. Where is this company going? Are they using the "shrink to grow" strategy? Outside of Tengiz and the Permian, what is the next bright... — read more

So at 3pm BST today, CUE management called a town hall with less than a half hour to go until the start. All of our assets - Alba, Captain, Alder, Erskine, Britannia, etc - are to be marketed and buyer(s) sought. 'Keep an eye on the SharePoint site... — read more

Is Midcon growing? I am a ten year employee with varied experience. I am thinking about trying to move to Midcon from Downstream if that is possible. Sensible input is appreciated.

How many super highly paid expats with their zillion allowances are out there? Each expat is at least a million dollars in cost. Eliminate 500 expats or move them back to their home base where possible. That is at least 500 million bucks. Could be... — read more
