How do you find out if a job has a stone cold lock incumbent?
The title says it all. I see a job that screams my name, but if there is a perfect candidate already in it, there is no reason to post for it. I don't know anyone who works in Midland to call and ask. If there are 2 seats available, do you think it... — read more

The Axeman cometh. Again to ETC in Q3.
Headcount may be reduced below 2,000. Will probably be confirmed in the upcoming townhall. Many other corporate functions will likely take an additional hit as well. Can't really argue. No one has any work to do.

Project manager who blew 100 million

GATOR IS DEAD!
With great wisdom the leadership team of GOM has killed GATOR. Those insulated in the golden towers so easily forget the blood and lives that caused the need for this. Blood will flow in GOM, lives will be lost, and somehow Chevron will explain away... — read more
Chevron Warn Notice
Why would Chevron have activated the warn notice for Louisiana and not forTexas?
How does one know if they are "Deadwood"?
If you listen to some here, simply being in scope means that you are deadwood, but I think it takes a poor thought process to come to that conclusion. Are you exempt from being deadwood if you are rated a 1? How about a +2? Perhaps we will not know... — read more
In Scope 1's
I've heard of a few people that were ranked a 1 for last year yet they were notified that they are in scope... Doesn't that seem like an oxymoron? With a 1 ranking, shouldn't these individuals have a positive attitude going into the ESP? Or should... — read more

The Oil Buisness
The oil business has always had up, then down cycles. During the down cycles people get laid off - a fact. If your lucky enough to stay with Chevron for 20, or 30 years this won't be the last down turn you see. If this volatility is too much for your... — read more

Severance question. Does time spent at CalTex count toward severance calculation?

GOM Sell
Tuesday has come and gone. Where's the person who said the deal was to be completed yesterday? Hahaha, that's what I thought. Keep WD, MP and VK flowing. Because it's still for Chevron.

Is anyone familiar with how background checks work when finding a new job, going back to schools, etc.? Do they usually contact corporate HR? BU HR Partner? Supervisor? I am taking this industry downward cycle to go back for my Master's. I have been... — read more
Superstore Cloud 9 Manager "Glenn" Has a Lot in Common w/Chevron Leadership
Glenn's behavior on Superstore is an exacerbated version of many Chevron leaders - so incompetent - extremely hard to believe unless you've worked there before. Since I feel this way, why don't I leave? I did leave Superstore (Chevron), and I have... — read more
Greetings fellow ROMulans
