Chevron is not counting the Expats in the 4,000 number. The department of labor only requires U.S. based employee reporting. The numbers did not add up when i saw the PP and when I asked a question, the answer was the impact is downgraded by reporting 4,000. The true number will be given to investors as cutting head count is looked as a positive. The culture truly is one of deception. 4k or 5k, why lie?

@3bob, you had me going for a while until you ended with "Duh".
I think that you pieces of trash, or dead wood, or whatever you two perverted love birds call each other, need to go get a room already. Try to stick to the layoff forum topics, if you don't mind. You can get back to your porn surfing 24-7 like you do all day instead of working after you are cut, which is what you are in danger of and why you are on this website, ..Duh!!
Then why don't you go find yourself a woman and occupy yourself with something more productive, @2glj.
Hey @FXzJEg4-1tyx, every time I've ever heard that term it was a woman making the comment. Are you a lesbian wanting to come out so you would like to get together with the deadwood woman after you both are laid off? I know that CVX is LGBT friendly but trolling the layoff forum for that is perverted and pathetic!!
@1jrt. The HR org charts are still there. You might try onesearch (ha!), but I found it directly from upstream site. You can drill up and down across the different BUs, OPCOs, and even the TPS orgs. You can find some cool stuff like El Segundo refinery has 300 open positions, and PNZ has 1000 open positions. Probably people let go and closing the job (but not the position). These are all only Chevron, not contractors or JV-seconded roles.
All of theach post are correct. The number will be much higher. The purpose of being vague is tone deflect. And the WARN act requires U.S STATES to recieve layoff numbers. The Federal WARN act requires reporting to the states. This would leave any Expats reporting out of the requirements. I think we all know it will be a round 2 and numbers will be quite high by the end of the year. Chevron is in a negative cash flow situation and is in a panic to pay these failed projects and dividends.
If you drill down through the system you can find org charts. In GOMBU the old charts were deleted the day the new org charts rolled out. That , for example, is the only way you would know that over 60% of ES's were being cut. Ask your HR business partner where the org charts are and watch them squirm. When companies get sued for discriminatory termination practices, a bothersome pre-trial legal procedure known as "discovery" begins. Discovery is the process whereby litigants obtain documents, records or interogatory depositons from involved parties. Subpoenas may be needed. HR management tries to make the info difficult to obtain before they get sued. That is also why certain policies related to RAEs, ROMs and ESPs are kept purposely vague so that when they are discovered, the company isnt painted into a corner. If you dont follow things closely you really dont know the true layoff numbers and percentages. This info is purposely obfuscated to benefit Chevron. That is why there is di much confusion about the true ESP numers.
Hey Dead Wood, go find a woman. Occupy yourself.
Plenty of Dead Wood needs yet to be cut from the tree, and I see plenty posting here!!
The worst kept secret is that the 7k will end up being incremental and not a cumulative number.
the orginal number of 7,000 includes the 3,000+ from last year, which leaves about 4,000
how do you get org charts ? I only see static PDFs that are outdated. The Chevron Whitepages don't do org charts like LDAP/AD would do and you can only get one level below a person and cannot export.
We're use to the bullshit in GOMBU. VP is still sticking to story of 20% layoffs. I guess they think people with graduate degrees are all stupid. Anyone who has done the math by comparing pre-ROM org chart numbers to new org chart post-ROM knows the cuts are closer to 60%. VP probably towing the party line. Thinking Shellenbarger is the real asshole here.
I believe the numbers are being adjusted under more pesimistic scenarios that were not pausible a quarter ago. The longer we get into this year, the bloddier it gets, it is a tragedy
"When E.F. Hutton speaks, everybody listens." Who remembers that tag line from the late 70's? The tag line Chevron executives are setting up themselves with to their employees is quite the contrary to the E.F. Hutton days of truth and integrity.
Is this in addition to the ones that were laid off last year?
Some of us figured this out as the numbers are not adding up. The only thing we came up with is not reporting Expats cut. So we were right.
