Any Updates On San Ramon

I am on vacation in Barcelona and have not seen anything in my email on the San Ramon update. I keep hearing that we are shutting that office down sooner than later but I cant confirm.

If anyone has an update, I would like to hear it. I am on a special assignment for the next 2 years and have not been given a new job or required reporting date to Houston.


Wiping History

As much as the decline was evident in the past 10 years I never thought the once great Company would disappear altogether.

"We view this outcome as a powerful combination of financial strength and operational improvement, fully aligned with our strategy of maintaining a lean, flexible cost structure and a conservative balance sheet to capture opportunities across industry cycles.” Adam Anderson


Essendant and CyraCom Layoffs in Houston (2025)

Hundreds of layoffs are coming to Houston as two major companies downsize their local operations.

CyraCom International, a remote interpretation provider recently acquired by Propio, will close its Houston facility and eliminate 355 jobs beginning December 1. The cuts include interpreters in Spanish, Vietnamese, Portuguese, Arabic and several other languages. CyraCom’s Arizona office will also see about 500 jobs cut as part of the restructuring.

Essendant Management Services, a distribution company, has also announced plans to cut 92 jobs in Houston this November due to business downsizing.

These announcements come after recent WARN Act filings revealed nearly 1,900 layoffs statewide from August through October, with Houston shouldering most of the impact. Both CyraCom and Essendant have not yet provided further comment.


EOI or Relocation

I know a lot of us are weighing the EOI decision, and it isn’t easy. But here’s the reality: if you don’t take the EOI and land another role, you won’t receive any severance. On top of that, the Houston move date is essentially locked for July 2026.

For me, the culture here has shifted for the worse, and I don’t believe it’s worth uprooting and relocating. There are plenty of opportunities in the Bay Area worth pursuing instead. That’s why I’ve decided to take the EOI.

To those still on the fence, I truly wish you good luck in whatever path you choose. Just make sure it’s a choice that sets you up best for the future, because staying until July 2026 could mean walking away with nothing.


LAYOFF DATA BREAKDOWN

For those who have already taken AEOI, EOI, or been laid off, I understand that you receive a list showing some demographic info about those who have left CVX.

I’m curious if that info show the location of the employees. Especially for those who were laid off, I would love to see the breakdown by San Ramon vs. Houston. I am starting to think that San Ramon employees have been unfairly targeted for layoff (so, given similar candidates, the Houston employee is the one selected).
