Any guess when the company will be hiring again in positions they cut too much from.

Seek pastures elsewhere. This is a dying industry. I got laid off and already have a new job lined up. I won’t be a troll like others and state that it pays way more, but it pays almost as much. There’s stuff out there. You gotta hustle.
I know of three new hires in SJV. They are finishing up with background, physicals now. Start date in January
Coal production has yet to peak.
You can’t compare the Coal with the O&G industry. Both are energy sectors, but that’s where the differences end. Oil and Gas will far outlast coal as a vital industry to humankind.
Coal will also be with us in 1000 years, but would one want to be in that industry? Big Oil is catching up to Big Coal as a career.
And then you woke up, lol.
They are currently bringing new hires on in SJV
I don't need to keep up. I passed them up long ago, Clotile. They need to start to work for a change and I'll tink bout keeping dem or they'll be cut in the next roun' yeah! lmao!
@2izc, actually, it's the other way around, Gaston, you ol' Coona$$ Boogalee. They cut a lot of the useless millennials in my group and I am still here picking up their slack and I am an ol' timer at 56. The older workers are more skilled, experienced, competent, and reliable. The younger workers are nothing but useless fly-by-nights who thought they knew everything but couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel. Good riddance, I say. Most of them are gone now.
And good luck to you, mon cher!
Usually about 12-13 months. This works really well as Chevron's order of stacking the deck is to first get rid of the old farts, and then after a year, hire younger workers that are better fit and less costly. The old goats should get out of the company. They have their houses paid for; they increase the experience factor on our company's medical insurance, take more time off sick, more AB109, PFL end everything else. They smell like piss, are hard of hearing, and everything else Dr. Seuss said about getting old. Dead wood - cut them out.
Most of the R4 EOIs were some of the best employees Chevron had who knew they could do better elsewhere without suffering another 18-month reorg in 12 months from now.
It won't be long. I'm having a conversation on that currently. Now that they have cut out a lot of the dead wood and diversity section they will need some quality folks to take up the slack. Stand by.
Chevron did not cut too deep. Your going to see asset sales and additional layoffs in the next few years. Unfortunately, they are going to need to make tough decisions on the next round. Most layoffs were EOIs, older (expensive) people in 50s and bad employees. They did not layoff average employees yet.
OP, I agree with everything you said, except “it’s in a dying industry”. The O&G industry is certainly going through a downturn, but I guarantee you it’s NOT a dying industry. Unless you are meaning dying over 1,000 years.
Sure they will. But mostly in Manila and Buenos Aires.
Avoid Chevron if you can. The transition is a mess and morale is very low. Its in a dying industry and they will spare no employee to protect the dividend.
