H***2 发帖数: 44 | 1 Energy giant Chevron will eliminate about 1,500 job positions in an effort
to cut costs, the company said in a statement Tuesday.
The cuts, which will take place across 24 business groups in its corporate
center, will result in cost reductions of about $1 billion.
"In light of the current market environment, Chevron is taking action to
reduce internal costs in multiple operating units and the corporate center,"
Chevron said, in the statement. "These initiatives, which are currently
underway, are focused on increasing efficiency, reducing costs and focusing
on work that directly supports business priorities."
Of the announced cuts, about 270 are existing vacant positions that will not
be filled; the company also plans to eliminate an additional 600
contracting positions as well.
Chevron shares were little-changed in after-hours trading. It and Exxon
Mobil are both slated to report quarterly earnings Friday morning. | x******4 发帖数: 3001 | |
