How many clues of managements intentions do you need? Their plan is to eliminate your job and have you train your replacement. Get out while you can. Time to double down on the job search.

OP is right! I heard that the company wants to let go 100% of the workforce.
It's true!
@1yai+1a2OuuFr
Glad to hear some of you are staying, one less competitor in the current job market saturated with EM resumes. :)
@1ugn+1a2OuuFr - makes a lot of sense. Of all possible jobs he might apply to, he is worried others from XOM might apply for that same job. Also, no qualified people outside of XOM will apply for that job.
Sound logic!
@1yai+1a2OuuFr Or is also applying for a new job elsewhere
OP is a loser posting on multiple threads and asking people to quit. With enough attrition, he hopes he will not be PIPed or laid off,
Good luck with that lame strategy. You are not fooling anybody.
Think about it from Darth Woods office:
Issue- structural savings of $6B , need to find another $3B
Solution, get rid of more staff
Cheapest way to get rid of staff in descending order
1: make work environment unbearable and staff leave - cost nothing
2: if ignorant staff don’t get messages then implement impossible assessment process 8%
3: hope 8% staff take PIL - cost 3 months pay
4: for staff on PIP - make it impossible to pass - 75% will convert to PIL - cost some supervisor time and remaining time pay. Some will pass the PIP but we will get them next year
- PIP failures get terminated cost only supervisor time, but we squeezed them for 3 months and the cruelty was worth the pay
6: voluntary redundancy for anyone over 55 - cost 4 months pay
7: Involuntary is most expensive and least preferred option
