The IT "managers" at Chevron are not promoted on merit, they are the brother-in-laws, godfathers, and daughters of high-level fat bastards embedded in Chevron for 35 years.
The people in IT are too stupid to understand the CPDEP process.
It started out as a good set of tools to make working a project easier. Now they have a manager of the ITC PMO, a person who has never successfully managed a project, who has been instrumental in adding layer of layer of overhead and required activities, in order to micomanage a project. He thinks an IT project should be run the same way PRC manages their capital projects. It is absurd to require a project to fill out a bunch of forms that add no value to the project. They need to go back to where it was 5 or 6 years ago.
CPDEP for IT
Methodologies are valuable when they insure consistency and prevent people from wasting time reinventing the wheel, but Chevron uses methodology as a substitute for developing and rewarding competence. I was in a small technical sub-specialty within IT. While management said they supported our team and our mission, they were convinced that we could get the job done by providing templates and checklists for people who did not have experience, training, or interest in our field of expertise. I believe we just created another layer of low value add work for an army of already exhausted template zombies.
Hey @GpamTQ3-1rls, I heard that he eats those Alligators live. And at the same time he pleasures himself with your little pink gay rosebud. Bend Over, sweetie!
@GpamTQ3-1kgb How about you STFU limp d**k.
Go back to pleasuring yourself while eating alligator.
I think that you guys have no input on it and what you think doesn't matter so STFU about things that are none of your business and you are just upset because their jobs are more secure than yours.
A reason to slow down business deliverables. Their purpose is to serve IT, when they should serve the business, the reason IT was there to begin, go figure!!!
Nothing, the same as everything else related to IT at Chevron.
It's garbage!
All this overhead requires an army of bozos.
They should scrap it and figure out
