ExxonMobil employees are some of the worst colleagues you will ever have. Imagine living in a free and exciting outside XOM world where your so called XOM colleagues and friends for the past two decades cannot (and happily not willing) to provide a reference?
These people are monsters (not by design some started as good people but the company made them as evil being).
All those giving legal arguments.. do you know that all other major company employees across the US and the world provide reference all day long. Why is XOM liability so special? The fact that people use that as an acceptable logic tells you how corrupt you are as an XOM employee.
