Makes you wonder who oversees Public Affairs in 2023.
B-Day wishes from Public Affairs to our former employees who were forced into early retirement.
Wishing you much happiness today and always,
And hoping you enjoy your special day!
You helped to shape ExxonMobil's history,
Leaving behind a meaningful legacy.
***For that, we bestow honor and respect.
You are very special, someone we never will forget!***
ExxonMobil Retiree Affairs
If you were able to take the late career Ernest and Young retirement 2-day course sponsored by ExxonMobil, you would have been told by the EY consultant that the longer you work beyond age 55, the more money you will have in your post-retirement years.
Bottom line, with very few exceptions, continue working until age 65+ if you are chasing the money pot of gold in ExxonMobil.
the answer was no.1: plain stupid. Sure, who wouldn’t like to be forced to retire at 55 with 75% of the normal pension
There was no incentive like above to retire early. The only incentive given was 4 months salary and no adder to age or years of service.
@2fog Dude, believe whatever you want. I really DGAF.
Not quite as bad as sending a letter congratulating the people that got laid off on their retirement. (I kept that one).
@2hls+1lVem3di
So the answer was no.1: plain stupid. Sure, who wouldn’t like to be forced to retire at 55 with 75% of the normal pension, when for decades most people taking the lump sum option would retire at 61-62. Maybe you could also process the idea that not everybody starts with EM at 21-23, meaning a lesser pension even at 60.
@1dng Stupid is as stupid does.
Still not seeing how anyone was forced into retirement.
If you still have to work after age 55 that’s a “you” problem. If somebody wants to keep working that’s another story, but nobody actually wants to work for anyone else when they’re pushing 60, so you should stop kidding yourselves.
If I was RE I’d be gone tomorrow.

“How were they “forced” into retiring?”
Are you stoopid, a manager or you don’t really work at EM? Only somebody in these three categories can ask such a question, after years of PIPing.
“…former employees who were forced into early retirement.”
How were they “forced” into retiring?
You say this like retiring is bad thing. That’s only true for people who didn’t plan well and still need a paycheck to get by.
Kick your useless adult children out of the house and stop getting divorced/remarried three times over so that you don’t have to work into your late 60s in order to make ends meet.
Too those dogging the retiree. You must be jealous.
If you’re retired. Why are you still here. Seriously go take up space elsewhere. Time to push the rest of you out anyways
Retired and still bitter. How sad!
How sickening is that?
