Kind of sh--ty isn't it? Insurance prices have gone up, no raises, and now it's no longer prudent to offer company stock. Bet we don't get our bonus this next year.

Hope we have enough folks to work this thing.

Crazy how quietly they do things here.....

So are the numbers high? I was looking at a job offer at the place and now I think I will set still.

Just heard that layoffs were going on at Apache right now (09 March). Not sure of the size, but heard it was big.

Just found out Apache sell to XTO hopefully this help the employees also why would Apache sell everything ??? Including the PERMIAN BASIN??!!!

They are happening right now. Good luck to all...

I think Apache, Anadarko, Chesapeake, Whiting and Noble should merge as soon as possible. Call the new company Mammoth Oil and Gas. The new name alone would position the company in the 'Too big to fail' category. Government bailout likely.

Was at a luncheon where bankers were speculating about corporate office employees needing to take 20% pay cuts. This year will be a bloodbath for layoffs because prices will remain low. Will 20% be enough?

They fixing to lay off a 8% starting this month and next month also everybody is getting a pay cut 20%

Over at another O&G company, and we just heard that to present a better deal, Apache is laying off and will lay off heavily prior to Xmas. Wow. Sorry to all Apache employees affected.

Layoffs at the Midland office today. Good luck to all affected.

Apache Corp., the oil explorer worth more than $18 billion, has received an unsolicited takeover approach for a deal that would be the largest for an independent producer in the U.S. this year, according to people familiar with the matter. Apache... — read more 

From what I've been hearing from multiple people is that another 5% of the global workforce (primarily Houston corporate) is on the table to be laid off prior to the end of the year. Whether it happens or not is mainly tied to stock price and how... — read more 

Has anybody heard about another round of layoffs after this quarter? Our stock price is still way down, and that seems to be the way they handle it.

I was trying to see why literally no one with Apache is talking about our recent layoffs (closing Tulsa, 5% back in January, etc.) and whether anyone knows about any upcoming ones. I've heard rumors circulating about an additional 5%-10% staff... — read more

I been hear a lot rumors about apache been sold by the end of the year but who would bought it ?

I heartaht are going to have more lay offs? And also they going to change the schedule of 10-4 to 7-2 and 8-4 ????

Apache was the last O&G I ever worked for. I am glad I didn't go back a 3rd time when they called me. I told them "thanks, but I'll pass this time. Twice was one time too many." Getting out of the O&G business was the best thing I ever did. All the... — read more 

Any news if Will Midland, TX will be included in the current cuts at Apache?

Anyone has morw details about severance packages offered

I think it was all over news back in December that Apache will cut 2015 capital budgets - this was confirmed by the company. It's a straightforward calculation from that point, if they are cutting capital budges, there will be less money to spend on... — read more 

Elk city Oklahoma office is having a meeting in the morning there is 12 of us looking at getting laid off.

I just heard a rumor that Apache is laying off 20% of their workforce...any confirmation? Will Midland, TX be affected?

Are we going to continue to expand (US, Australia, Canada, Egypt and UK (North Sea)) or are we going to see layoffs in 2015? The whole industry is shrinking.

Are we planning to start letting people go?

We donate 100k trees, we eliminate 100 positions. Cut, layoff, WFR, you name it...
