Chevron reviews

I quit it september 2016. Just found out from HR that unless I worked until Feb 28, 2017 that I would not get any portion of my CIP Bonus. Politics that are played between management and long term employees. So unless you have been with the company for 20+ years expect to get screwed on advancements or moving up the ladder. There are many behind the scenes business dinners that take place. Not all rules apply for the same employees of the same pay level. It is ok for management to deviate from corporate policy but not the ones that work under them, unless you are in their click. IE... driving trucks home, getting job positions, and CIP bonuses. Not sure how my father lasted 30 years.

Recent deep slashes were taken in the company in the form of lay-offs and tightening of the proverbial belt in any way possible. There is a definite disconnect between lower-level employees and upper-level management. It seems every year that there is a new approach to how business will be managed and keeping up can be a nightmare. Huge gap to be jumped between lower pay scale grades and higher pay scale grades with no intermediate positions to bridge the gap. This company is entrenched in an old-timers mentality, where if you're part of the in-crowd, you'll sail through positions and advancements with ease and anyone else's hard work to get noticed and advanced goes unrewarded. They are currently doing an excellent job at chasing off their younger talent pool who is seeing the writing on the wall of this fossil fuel company and their fossilized ways of managing business.
