I saw that Exxonmobil are employing new technicians but there are many bad reviews here. What is it really like to be working in the company? I have some friends who said that the company culture is toxic. Can someone enlighten us here?

Refinery upset in PAC
 
Did you find water in your crude feed? Lol

Management in Exxonmobil is always pushing us to QUICKLY prepare a tank for feed or loading to trucks and ships. Surveyor also pushed to “make sure” that there are no dirt, sediment, water or any questionable things in our product sample. They take sample and then FILTER out the stuff before sending to the LAB.

Everything is good - Lab result. So management always damn happy but they know cannot get 100% clean product. But because they want fast, technicians and surveyors have to cheat.

Everything also want fast, management sweep everything under the carpet until things like Refinery Upset is too big to cover up.

This is the fruit of your - fast fast fast.

Missing but not missing
 
In the latest ‘Saga’ facing Exxonmobil Refinery in Singapore: more than 1,000 barrels of diesel had just vanished into thin air. The incident happened at the Pulau Ayer Chawan (PAC) Refinery when checks after loading onto on an oil tanker revealed a major discrepancy. While discrepancies are a usual occurrence in the Refinery due to measurement accuracy, the variance seen in this particular instance is too huge to ignore. This writer believes that ‘men in places’ choreographing this have gotten complacent amidst the high oil prices of today. Estimated at more than US$150,000, the whole thing was swept under the carpet like nothing had happened. Rechecks on the variance was as rigorous as trying to brush my hair in the morning. It is all just a show to the rest of us who secretly knows, what is going on but are too scared to speak out, fearing backlash and revenge.

Sounds like a bad place to work. So many dirty laundry hanging.

As an ex-employee, the truth is being a supervisor here is really living like a King. Just delegate everything down to your solider and they have to think, execute and take blame for anything that goes wrong.

Don’t think your supervisor plan for your development. They plan so you can do their job.

As a ex-employee of 7 years in operations, I would like to say working Exxon is not that bad. Btw, i was working in refinery. If you wish to learn more skills, it is a great company to work in. If you wish to have a relax a job, i think you can look elsewhere. Being a MNC, their standard for operation technician is considered high, Therefore, their Basic Operator Training is very comprehensive. The negative side of being a technician is that the workload will be much more than other company especially in the refinery. If you happened to partner a colleague that has 20-30 years of experience, high chance that most of the work will be done by you. For example: routine rounds, collect sample, etc . I agree that the culture can be toxic. Last, they did pay the best OT rate and basic salary in O&G and petrochemical industry.

There is a new program called FLS of Tomorrow. By its name, you should know how bad smelly are they to attend this course. Maybe one day they might change the course name to make some cover up.

I’m a current employee at Exxonmobil and I think that the company is falling downhill. Some of us are waiting for Turnaround to start before we tender our resignation. Max pain, tit for tat.

Of course, you can join and see how incompetent fools can become Front Line Supervisors or even Second Line Supervisors. They know how to talk their way through life. Overpaid incompetent fools, if i may add.

Unregistered 22-11-2022 10:37 PM

Get ready for it
 
You’d have to be living under a rock to not notice that the current mood on the ground is unhappiness, added with the sheer disregard for working properly. In short, this bo chap attitude which reflects on the amount and scale of injuries and accidents is a sign that your guys just don’t give a damn. We’ll tender our resignations once Turnaround happens. You have been warned.

At least she try. Many didn’t and play politics only.

Have a peer who everyday YES man in front of SLS. But behind the scene filtering information about real credibility and purpose make other people job difficult so he can score. May lord punish and expose them. Give us back the unfair treatment he given to us. We don’t play politics. We just be honest fellow!
