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.
