What would happen the employees in Houston that are a the global payroll, not the US one ? I think there are still quite a lot of them in Houston . Will they be switched to a US contract ?

Will they call people at home and tell them there badge has been deactivated and somebody will clear out their desk? I don't think IT people will want to talk face-to-face. given how cr-ppy this layoff has been handled.

Does anyone know if local employees in international locations (Nigeria, Angola, etc..) received an AEOI email?

Or only specific teams? I see some people on the board did not get it, so just curious.

I AEOI’d today. San Ramon, 20 year tenure, recently (Oct ‘24) promoted to 22. It was a good run but no way am I going to the swamp. Use the GO-441-1020 form if removing personal data from the network. Source in cyber says severance will be at... — read more 

We’re talking about accountability. The first step in true accountability is admitting failure and taking ownership of one’s actions. Yet, ELT and Senior Leadership seem to believe that accountability applies only to employees, while leadership... — read more 

I'm a PSG 19, been with the company 11 years. This is different-ish than the last reorg. Without BU's, does anyone have any ideas how we function without reporting to specific functions?

Anyone going over to the Exxon layoff site to read what they’re saying about CVX and the arbitration? It’s interesting.

heard some got $3000, some $5000, wondering why different?

I was notified that someone expressed interest for me?

Anyone seen it yet? We had a watch party waiting

Safety is no longer number one… Cutting cost is number one…. We are soon going to putting the safety of our refineries and LNG plans personnel with inexperienced offshored ENGINE personnel. It’s going to result in a number of Workforce H&S, Public... — read more 

In 2010 the headcount was 60,000+ . Closer to 30,000 now. Soon to be closer 20,000. The outsourced offshore to India thing makes it easy to cut that appendage in heartbeat. The real value of CVX is in its assets and access to acreage. Little by... — read more 

MW put out the message that people should only be getting 1 maybe 2 exceeds at most. I watched managers hold to 1 exceeds regardless of if the performance deserved 2 maybe 3 for lower PSG’s but they dished out 2 and 3 for higher PSG’s and didn’t say... — read more

I dont want to hear anyone bad mouthing indians. Long before them there were worthless managers that laid on their accent really thick and did nothing: they were Scotts and English. I literally attended a meeting this week where a doufus mention... — read more 

I heard 7K - 9K people will be laid off or accept the EOI. Are you hearing the same?

As we navigate the inevitable chaos this organization is bound to become, let’s take a moment to reflect on some of the most questionable ideas our esteemed Chevron overlords, self-serving middle managers, advisors, and various other pretenders have... — read more 

We all know where this is going. Chevron is not above improvement, our culture and lack of accountability (albeit at the top, not the bottom) is something we should strive to improve upon. Let's be honest though - we can improve on all of these areas... — read more 

With the move to asset classes and elimination of BUs, will there still be IT positions in places like Covington, Midland, and Bakersfield?

Phillips is looking to sell CP Chem and Chevron has a rofr. Think we will buy it? Or too distracted with reorgs and Hess?

Learn to code. In the meantime, would you like fries with that?

Is it taxed like bonus where uncle Sam takes 40% special cut or taxes at regular income tax brackets?

ELT needs to feel the pain since they are not taking any accountability for their actions. They expect us to deal with this mess they have created and give 110%. No way! Cut your effort to bare minimum.

Sounds like some managers are being asked to develop org charts. Any insight on layout, limits, etc?

My husband did not hear anything from the local leadership. Does anyone know what is the deal with the Expats?

It is as though Mckinsey designed this process to do the max amount of damage to morale and culture as possible. Every meeting exposes another layer of flaccid leadership and utter tone deafness. Every townhall would’ve been better off as an email... — read more 

370+ people logged into Teams to watch the meeting… and that’s all they got to do, watch… a slide deck. No audio the entire time. Makes one wonder if offshoring all of IT is really even a bad thing?!? Can’t get any worse.

He sounded like a robot across both town halls… swapping "downstream" with "upstream" like it was straight from a well-prepared script. Guess he’s AI.

So is Australia Australia, Base Assets, Emerging or Offshore? The new categories make no sense whatsoever, they are designed to last no more than three years before a new reorganization is needed. Shame on leadership.

Any thoughts on which departments would be affected the most in refining/MFG?
