Did Chevron pull out of Tigerama at LSU?

We supposedly laid off 1000 people in Houston alone. However, in looking at the org charts that came out, it seems like only those who raised their hands were let go. I don't know how that number can be so big. The number supposedly excludes the RAE... — read more

We have not had our ROM yet. Please share from experience what might be a strategy for securing any job. Thanks

What do we know?

Having worked on a couple projects with Chevron, it is easy to spot the key members of the teams. Those who consistently delivered excellent results, stepped up when asked, and were the go-to people when experience was needed. Then you have the other... — read more 

I made it through this ROM but I don't think my group will make it through another reorganization. I work hard but doubt there will be anywhere for me to go if we do this again in a couple quarters.

In their letter to the Texas Workforce Commission, spokesman Ed Spaulding said, “Chevron is taking action focused on increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and focusing on work that directly supports business priorities,” reflecting the 90 percent... — read more

I am PSG-26 and I was in that ROM room for 3 days. Absolutely unbeliavble the amount of unfairness that went on. It really sucks to be white, old, outspoken, not liked or in the wrong place at the wrong time. It rules to be black, asian, indian, ass... — read more 

I'm glad this whole process is over, but I can confirm that this was neither a performance-based cut, or a "best-fit" approach, but rather friends hiring friends. I'm sad to leave some awesome colleagues but I don't envy those who are staying.

Does anyone know anything about ROM 3?

Chevron stockholders (the owners of the company) are demanding lower operating costs and a leaner organization. Time to market is critical. Expect a very volitile 2 qtr with a possible 10% work force reduction. Expect a fast track ROM.

Is this happening right now? I was let go earlier this summer.

Amazingly, I haven't heard much about what may happen this week as to how ROM2 notifications will go out. Anyone have a clue?
