Chevron reviews

Blatant favoritism to "legacy" kids regardless of their actual ability and performance - and there are many such examples. Very disheartening.

- Prior work experience almost a negative because makes your re-programming even more difficult. If one is not a Chevron "lifer", then it is tough to get respect or elevation into the "club" and certainly never obtain a leadership role in the organization - Worst/subjective employee appraisal system on the planet. All it takes is one person with mildly negative feedback and your rating will disproportionately suffer - Getting the job done well, on time/budget counts far, far less than how the job is done. The balance is extremely twisted - Middle and senior management rarely have experience outside of Chevron and this myopia will be frustrating - They have turned their project management process into a lethargic beast that does little other than significantly increase project costs and time - Chevron seems to be incapable of executing their projects whether major capital or small IT projects on a budget or timescale that most people would consider reasonable - High commodity prices let CVX get away with many mistakes
