Layoffs happening as I type. Permian

In virtual town-hall meeting It was mentioned executives’ pay cut, and the answer was that they took pay cuts because the stock price went down?

This company must have an A team of id–ts working around the clock on how to drive this once great company in the ground. We now have decided to not flare ever. No government mandate. We our doing it because we are now green. What stupidity with... — read more 

Management is a joke. Why do you need 4 Directors and a VP who brownnosed his way to the top? Still hoping for a package because common sense left this department a long time ago.

I've hated this company, this job, and this industry for the last 3 years or so. For those of us who are fresh out of school...boy oh boy did we miss the boat on a fun career in oil and gas. Give me severance and let me walk away from this empty... — read more 

Don't forget the Environmental, Health, Safety and Emergency Management department! They need some more cuts since safety doesn't matter anyways. Plus, we need to create new spots for the rejects the new incompetent VP is trying to save from... — read more 

Apache couldn’t care less about their employees or their well beings. Many of people have busted their asses for this company and they don’t care. Not one bit. Unless you are certain people or certain contractors. They have decided to stop... — read more 

Going on now

Any layoffs coming or are we done? I saw last weeks comment about a slaughter but nothing has happened.

Rumors are circulating that APA leadership is considering allowing non-essential personnel to work remotely indefinitely. Has anyone else heard this? With so many companies (Twitter, Coca Cola, Google, Kiewit etc.) moving to a virtual work day it... — read more 

Apache has used Project Ascend to downgrade and downskill nearly every team in our “strong, diverse portfolio”. That is a move others are not taking. Cannot wait to see how this plays out. Fire in the belly y’all! Roll Call: What’s your favorite... — read more 

Sounds like there going to be a slaughter in Midland soon.

Just wait girls and boys.

Thursdays seem to be the favorite days for layoffs. Anyone heard anything lately?

I am a current long time employee. I use to believe in this company and our leadership. Like many of you I have invested my professional life to Apache because of this belief. After witnessing our leadership manipulate, play good old boy and be... — read more

Do many (or any) of us left even care anymore? Bleak outlook, company rapidly falling apart, continual reorgs that reduce workforce while bolstering management, and all of this PRIOR to any OPEC manipulation or coronavirus. Motivation is harder to... — read more 

What did everyone walk away with?

With the failure of Alpine High, it makes perfect sense to move that staff into Permian and cut the Permian staff that kept the cash flow coming into Apache. Logical move JC. With oil below $20, the only way to go is up. JC will say it was the... — read more 

How did APA lead energy stocks today? On the same day they lay-off more people? Who in their right mind believes in this sinking ship?

Now we are officially reopen texas. Are we going back too?

I find it rather sickening that the company just now decides as part of Project Descend to ensure "diversity" and "women in higher positions." If you were an ethical company, you would make the right hiring decisions all along, regardless of gender... — read more 

I have been let go in mid March and my thoughts are still with the co workers that I enjoyed working with excluding the dead weights. Is Apache doing additional layoffs among their office employees with today's price crash to $2/barrel?

It's silly and highly inefficient that management doesn't let employees borrow hardware like monitors, docking stations, computer accessories, etc etc. We all know with all the layoffs they have plenty of equipment just getting depreciated and... — read more
