Culture stinks now

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The only good thing is the pay and benefits

Cons

After the layoffs last year, the culture totally stinks. Lack of role clarity is rampant and a culture of overwork pervades the company now. The return to 4 days in the office is an absolute joke because people have long commutes in the horrible Houston traffic just to attend a bunch of meetings on microsoft teams. On top of that, there are many meetings with overseas coworkers at both ends of the day and there is no way that "in-person collaboration" can happen with those people by spending an hour in traffic commuting to the office. The way things are going right now, many will quit from burnout, which is probably the intention since they seem to want people to leave so that they can replace US based employees with those in India, Argentina, and the Phillipines.

Un-American and Incompetent

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

You have a job until the next round of layoffs

Cons

Chevron leadership has masterfully rebranded un-American corporate globalism as "strategic efficiency." By aggressively offshoring high-skill roles, they aren’t just cutting costs—they are systematically exporting the American middle class to pad a dividend. It is a cynical betrayal of the domestic workforce that built this energy giant. ​The result is a toxic, fear-driven culture where employees are treated as disposable line items rather than assets. Under the current regime, the "Chevron Way" has become a race to the bottom, sacrificing long-term institutional knowledge for short-term shareholder appeasement. When leadership prioritizes offshore labor and stock buybacks over the people on the ground, they aren't leading an American icon—they’re managing its liquidation. The IT leadership is especially poor as they do not defend the function and have put us in a no-win situation of fear, intimidation and not having the people to get the aggressive work demanded by businesses.

Corporate Destruction

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Its a job in difficult times. Decent benefits. Some good teammates exist out there.

Cons

Leadership hasn’t just failed this company; they’ve destroyed it. Morale is dead, and management’s credibility is non-existent. Their vision begins and ends with layoffs and shipping American jobs overseas, betraying the very legacy they claim to uphold. This is not longer a "Great American Company". The IT department is the ultimate casualty—a chaotic wreck thanks to an incompetent CIO and shortsighted cuts that have left the infrastructure in shambles. Coming in the office 4 days a week for online meetings with people overseas is insane.
