I wouldn’t feel this way if the job market weren’t as horrible as it is. If there were a decent chance of landing another job, I wouldn’t feel so cornered and anxious. I hope to keep the job, but I’m fully aware that the likelihood of losing it is... — read more 

Downstream Townhall answered nothing of real relevance for employees. Also, is AW on something? He was red and sweaty and overly hyper. Not the look you want from someone that is as high a PSG and supposedly in charge.

A bit confused on the new org chart for DMC vs TPE

Are we going to get any real info in the upstream townhall townhall or is it more nothing Burger nonsense?

Just what I said above in the title. It’s all so absurd.

Nothing makes me feel better about getting laid off than looking in my mailbox to find out 900,000 boe/d puzzle piece. Happy Tuesday everyone. One day closer to working at McDonalds.

I guess they’re scared employees might riot when they start getting those termination letters and talks. They will need how to evacuate the ELT from the masses lol

“They” can get closer to the numbers they project if they have an enhanced AEOI. This way, those on the fence will volunteer and they can project even better and lessen the numbers competing for spots.

Anyone else get a questionnaire regarding military service in workday? Seemed kind of odd and specific. Had questions regarding disabilities and other types of service. Anyone care to shed some light on it?

will probably do better than current mgmt if they believe that an ENGINE is the solution to regain lost positions.... Just move everything there.....

Why are we even bothering with PMPs right now? Do they realize employees don’t even know what to put on there and we have to re-do it after the re-org (assuming we are still here). I’m so over re-work, paper and processes that don’t add value. I was... — read more

The company went all-in on cloud computing (Azure) and Agile/Scrum. Cloud is a money waster in the long run. AI is a scam. And almost all IT projects are waterfall (not agile). Are those initiatives surviving?
