Thread regarding Chevron Corp. layoffs

The attitude towards Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) on this thread provide great clarity. Thank you.

Because, no one cares !~

You want to know why? Myself and other colleagues have been out in the field busting our humps throughout the pandemic and the layoffs, not missing a beat.

Meanwhile, HSE and other office dwellers have been pondering the post-layoff meaning of life and deciding which bureaucratic processes are more important to dump on the field workforce first.

They recently boiled down our business objectives to 2 things: higher returns, lower carbon. If someone can’t figure out where they fit in such a simple model, the truth is they don’t.

Maybe the VP needs to be fired and in his place we have a spin-a-wheel decision board hung on the wall. When a decision is needed, the most senior employee in the group just gives the wheel a spin, and voila!

It is not part of the Chevron culture to attack another employee for a post. Try to understand why they are posting and work to address the issues they present. We are not a company that bullies but one that seeks understanding.

HSE is like IT. It is a necessary evil and drain on resources. Everyone hates it. Staff are mostly unqualified rejects from other functions. VP is a loser.

Because: Someone from HES is a bit bitter due to the circumstances?
