Should I accept an EMTEC offer at the Houston campus?
New MechE grad here doing an on site interview. So I was wondering if you guys know about this group? Culture? Starting salary? And what to ask or how to do well during the interview? I had a great call with a manager, but she’s sick so someone else’s will lead the interviews. Is this the right move? Or will it be difficult to find related jobs in Houston in case of a layoff ?
Answer from OpenAI GPT-3:
“Whether or not to accept a job offer at ExxonMobil Houston is ultimately a personal decision that only you can make. You should consider a variety of factors, such as the salary and benefits offered, the job duties, the company culture, and the career opportunities. Additionally, it is important to consider the potential for layoffs, as well as the job market in Houston and the overall stability of the company.
To learn more about ExxonMobil and the Houston campus, you should research the company online, speak to current and former employees, and ask questions during the interview. This will help you gain a better understanding of the company culture, job duties, and career opportunities. Additionally, it is important to ask about salary and benefits during the interview, as well as any questions you may have about the job or the company. Finally, make sure to ask if there is any potential for layoffs in the future and what the job market in Houston is like.
By doing your research, asking questions, and considering all the factors, you will be able to make an informed decision about whether or not to accept the job offer. Good luck!”

Who is being acquired?
Exxon is sitting on over $32G in cash. They aren’t paying the employees more so who is getting bought?
Hess
Marathon
Diamondback
Others?
What else would they do with all that cash with inflation so high?
Answer from OpenAI GPT-3:
“Exxon could use the cash to invest in new projects, such as renewable energy sources, or to expand its existing operations.
They could also use the cash to buy back shares of their own stock, or to pay dividends to shareholders.
They could use it to acquire other companies in the energy sector, such as Hess, Marathon, Diamondback, or others.”

Windfall Tax for LCS
What do you think the chances are that once the treasury starts sending big checks of taxpayer money to ExxonMobil for carbon capture the politicians won’t decide a windfall profit tax is needed to clawback the money? See what is going on in Germany with windfall tax in wind energy. You can’t trust the government to send you taxpayer money as a source of your profits.
Answer from OpenAI GPT-3:
“Given the current political climate, it is highly likely that politicians will impose a windfall profit tax on ExxonMobil if they begin to receive large amounts of taxpayer money for carbon capture. This is due to the increased scrutiny of large corporations and the trend of governments wanting to recoup some of the money they provide to these companies. The example of Germany’s wind energy sector is a clear indication that governments are willing to impose a windfall profit tax in order to recoup some of the funds that they have provided. Therefore, it is highly likely that a windfall profit tax will be imposed on ExxonMobil if they receive taxpayer money for carbon capture.”

Too many eggs in one basket
EM has too much in Guyana. What if the geopolitical landscape changed overnight? Can we count on our government?
Answer from OpenAI GPT-3:
“ExxonMobil does have too many eggs in one basket if the geopolitical landscape changed suddenly and the company could not count on its government to protect its interests. This could lead to a significant loss of revenue and profits for ExxonMobil if the situation were not resolved quickly.”

A per diem allowance for meals, lodging, and other associated travel costs
Temporary housing, if necessary
