At least at the rank and file level, I’m seeing the most talented/experienced/pedigreed people depart. Anyone else seeing this? In the last month alone the 2 most capable people in my team have left. A third left in July. In my orbit at least, the... —  read more 

As part of last year's severance, I enrolled in the Chevron subsided COBRA. Now that the subsidy ended, I enrolled in retiree post-65 health plan with ViaBenefit as outlined on Chevron HR Services BenefitConnect site. And am having issues with HRA... —  read more 

Does anyone know the 2022 salary ranges - legacy Noble staff here...

What's a typical finance role salary to start at Chevron? Should I expect or ask for $75k entry level? if not, could I get $75k-100k pretty easy?

I am thinking about pulling the plug on my career. I was planning to hold out a few more years to hit 25 years with Chevron (and full health care coverage points), but this never ending “transition” has sapped my enthusiasm and I have all the money I... —  read more 

Tired of sending hotline complaints about HR leaders with no response from RM? Just post on Linkedin and she will respond-she is really active there!

Do you think Chevron will have layoffs coming soon? I don't want to sign a job offer with them right after college, if I am going to end up being laid off within 2-4 years. I really love Chevron, but don't want to risk my career since its super... —  read more 

I made a slightly risky decision to accept an offer in a company that I'm not sure whether it will be much better for me. It may turn out to be much better there, but also maybe not, because it is something completely different than what I have done... —  read more 

One of the options being studied to soften the blow of returning to the office is permitting pets. Amazon does this and many other large companies are starting to do it. There would be rules involved, of course, but looks like we may be able to... —  read more 

Sigh - what’s left to reorg? Why?

With a 5.9% COLA to Social Security monthly checks in 2022……do you think Chevron will follow suit? The pension incorporates the SS COLA in the calculation so it only obvious that we should get the 5.9 + performance for our yearly raise. Thoughts? —  read more 

One would think that nepotism doesn’t exist in corporate America, but one would be naive to believe such garbage. Case in point - BH, new VP of CNE (4 pay grade increases in five years) is the niece of former CEO DO. Apparently her time in Sing... —  read more 

Whenever I read an article about Chevron’s billion-dollar investments in plans to reduce its carbon emissions intensity, I can’t help but think about whether this company has done anything significant to help transition workers more easily to clean... —  read more

I’m hearing both SJV and TX will reorging…again.

Anyone in any BU, or international location, been notified of promotion?

Anyone in the USA notified of promotion yet?

I think we will be in excellent shape once we get the following leaders removed that DP put into HSE positions: GS - Always angry, always talking about how hard it is to commute to downtown, always talking about how hard it is to be a woman... —  read more 

Are you suffering from a horrible case of Stockholm syndrome? I don't understand people who keep defending the company and calling it a great place to work...on a layoffs page. If it's that great, what are you doing here? Or are layoffs a part of... —  read more 

Supposedly HR is working with all country managers on a drastic reduction in expat benefits - housing, goods, travel, schools, etc. The idea is that with so much competition for so few slots, the benefits are way more generous than required. ... —  read more 

Those of you who might frequent downtown building in H-town might have noticed today that crew were working in the second floor to set up more tables. Sounds like everyone will be back in office before the Thanksgiving.

Has anyone heard who got selected to what roles? I am hearing they have 5 or 6 jobs that they cannot fill. We should have been notified by now.

Rolling out second week of October m

I am like WTF?

I have been fighting with them for 2+ weeks to rollover my 401K. 6 phone calls, each gives different answers. Oh, I need two days to liquidate this. Oh, I need two days to liquidate that. Oops, we didn’t consider this or that. Finally on last... —  read more 

Who is working successfully in an exotic location far from home and office? I know a lady who left her Houston apt and is working from Scotland. She is up late, obviously. I heard about some San Ramon people who have Maui condos. Others?

DP….gone. Is HSE better off??

I was laid off 2016. I have maintained my pre-65 health insurance as a positive benefit. I have also been contributing to life insurance premiums as part of that package. I just turned 60 and my premium went up about 30%. To me, sunk cost in... —  read more 

Curious to see if anyone else is seeing less flexibility in their work schedule (such as 4/10 not being honored) or very strict office hours. Seems like the maximum flexibility that was spoken about repeatedly has gone by the way side.

RM has had her job for about 4 years. She’s wrecked the HR group. She has done nothing to hold a group of awful leaders accountable - HR for sure but also enables DP’s mess. There isn’t one thing can point to that is better under her watch. Maybe... —  read more
