With the ITC project Alpha last year, did everyone who expressed their Interest to be left standing get their wish or were some still given jobs ? I think in the earlier 2014 ITC ROM not everyone who submitted an EOI got their wish

Anyone else reading this board looking forward to a leaner, meaner, more competitive machine? Next week is go time for the reps.

It's like the playground of junior high school. You people are an f'ing embarrassment.

Any estimates?

There is a lot of survival politics at play all around in Chevron now -- a symptom of the underlying fear. Examples: bosses trying to portray themselves smarter than their subordinates or trying to downplay the achievements of subordinates in the PMP... — read more

In MCBU and the mood around here has shifted from anxiety to extreme boredom. Nobody is doing any work and no one is even trying to hide it anymore. It's like the stages of grief and now everyone is at the calm acceptance part and many people are... — read more

They do not value diversity of work ethic in the least. I hear that they run off all of the entitled Fvck-offs from other business units who have been getting away with sitting on their lazy A$$ES while still collecting a paycheck. I which they... — read more

After many years and a fortune spent, the first Gorgon LNG load has finally sailed. At long last we will begin to recoup some of the dollars we spent. Who knows, the Angola one might be next.

What are folks who were part of the ROM last year doing about their pension? Lump sum taken Annuity taken Done nothing so far

Can we get back to what's the inside scoop on ESPs, ROMs, and other details on what might be going on in this company? I almost miss the "What do we know" dude.

My guess is not more than 10 -15% of all must moves will get jobs, and the rest will be cut, simply because it costs more to bring us back than it does to keep someone where they are.

I see that most expats in the US from the other countries are not "must moves" in this ROM. All of those, whose positions are open can apply for any jobs they want. In fact several of their jobs are protected, while many US employees have to reapply... — read more

Anyone else tired of seeing the Chevron sponsor commercial with Mike I. CVX can sponsor a festival, rent a boat to entertain corp personnel ... While back over in NP were laying off personnel to cut down our budgets. Its a total slap in the face ...
