Chevron Announces 8,000 Layoffs as Part of Major Cost-Cutting Plan

Chevron Corporation announced plans for a 15% to 20% cut across its global workforce by December 2026 totaling about 6,000 to 8,000 positions. This is part of Chevron’s effort to realize $2 to $3 billion in structural cost reductions to streamline operations and give improved long term competitiveness. The layoffs will impose numerous sectors and geographies, although no details have yet been offered. Chevron pointed out it would assist employees through the transition.

These opposing strategies reflect the dynamic environment in the international business landscape. While PwC seeks to increase expenses and expand its workforce to promote innovation as Chevron is reducing costs in its bid for a competitive edge within the energy sector.
