No layoffs before next year?
Can we be certain layoffs are done for now?
Long term plans
Does anyone know what their long term plan is for this company? Is there one at all?
Employee lawsuits
Anyone know if there have been any employee lawsuits? Anyone not take the severance?
Who are the ones who can’t find a better job?
It took me a little over a month to decide that I definitely wanted to get out of here and about three months to get a better offer. I don't think any company is ideal, but let's say it suits my priorities better. Given my age, I thought I would... — read more
I am surprised to see so many complaints here
I think a lot of people have lost sight of what's important in their hate for Apache and its management. This company has many faults, but it also provides you with your livelihood, so some loyalty would be nice. Imagine if you were unemployed and... — read more
Diversity
Diversity without competence is just media hype HR leadership at its worst … Apache not a good investment for shares or employees time Get while you can
A lot of this going on here now.

Leaving Galleria Office?
What’s all this chatter about ????
I would be good to know if anybody regrets leaving
There are those of us who're considering leaving but are still undecided on the matter. I admit I'm worried about leaving a job I've been doing for nearly seven years for something unknown. I'm curious if anybody knows a former employee who left on... — read more
Staying motivated is getting really hard
It is really tough on those of who give 100 percent and somehow it is still not enough. Any tips from veteran Apache's would be welcome.
Quiet
Quiet before the storm. Just seems Par for the course?
Altus sold
What percentage of Apache are Altus employees? What’s next for Apache…slimming down to be acquired?
Apache has turned into a joke
Those who believe Apache is at the top of its game make me laugh. Most of the smart, technical people who kept us at the top have left years ago. With the leadership we have right now, I'm shocked we're still standing at all! Nobody wants to work... — read more
Highest level of incompetence
Other companies are doing whatever they can to keep their best people, while Apache is so determined to get rid of them that it's willing to pay them to walk away. Others are offering raises where this place is offering severances and nobody seems to... — read more
How is everyone handling the see saw?
One day you seem on top thinking you are doing great. Next day you seem on bottom wondering if you are being replaced.
Layoffs
Sounds like they are making some rounds today…. Or phone calls I guess…
They don't care at all
Ever since I finally accepted that they don’t care about employees at all, it’s been easier for me. I used to be very disappointed, but now there is no disappointment anymore. The only thing I sometimes wonder is what would manegement do here if they... — read more
Voluntary layoffs
What are the chances Apache will make voluntary layoffs offer any time soon?
Issues at Apache
Really upset that they’re making us come back into office. The “hybrid” model is really only 1.5 days not 2. Many of us have proved we can do our work from home and have enjoyed MUCH better work/life balance. They couldn’t even wait til the new... — read more
Prepare for this
We're looking for someone with the wisdom of a 50-year old, the experience of a 40-year old, the drive of a 30-year old, and the pay scale of a 20-year old. I know this is supposed to be a joke, but I've been interviewing in the last several months... — read more
It seems to me that they don’t understand the point of their job
One of the main reasons I will leave this company is micromanagement. It puts unnecessary pressure on me and works counter productively. Why so much micromanagement? Is it possible that they don’t understand the point of their job at all? Instead... — read more
Covid is done!!!!
According to JC and his minions as of October 18th Covid is done and you are required to report back to the office! People are Apache’s greatest asset, except when it comes to valuing your health, then they decide what’s best for you! — read more
I made the right choice
Walked away a year ago. I was petrified that I was making the biggest mistake of my life. While it was a bit rough at first as it usually is with any new position, I'm now in a much better place than I was a year ago. I just wanted to let the people... — read more
People leaving
So some people are so fed up they are leaving without another Job. That should tell you EVERYTHING!!!! No room for growth and playing games isn't looking so good now is it?
Hard workers have it worst here
This is the only company I’ve worked for where slackers are more valued than employees who give their best. The harder I worked, the harder it became because I kept getting even more work along the way, while the hardest part for the slackers was... — read more
Morale
Morale is so low. Micromanagers need to GO. People are leaving your groups for a reason. Apache used to be a Fun place to work. Even with lots to do. Now, nobody wants to even think about working here. Too many good people retired and these... — read more
GOM Shelf Assets
Is anyone paying attention to the multi billion dollar APA P&A liability looming in "Fieldwood 1" which is being operated by the same company who filed bankruptcy twice in 2 years and now calls themselves QuarterNorth Energy?
Uncertainty is the worst
Of course everyone is more or less on the edge after constant layoffs in the last two years. People can't focus on work because they are worried about what will happen tomorrow. What I expected from leadership was to at least find some way to... — read more
Remove the Exec Team!
Board, do your job.
Bosses constantly shifting
I have so far tried to develop an effective relationship with my bosses, until I got my fifth boss. Then I gave up. It’s not worth making much of an investment because I knew that one too would be replaced quickly. How can anyone get what they need... — read more
2022
Hmmmm. Is there something coming????
Soulless company
Apache has turned into a soulless company driven by nothing else but the almighty dollar. They couldn't care less about any of us. If some numbers cruncher decides that any of us make too much, we're gone. It doesn't matter how long we've been here... — read more
Another VP bites the dust!
Round and round it goes, where it stops nobody knows!
What's going on with possible layoffs?
I know layoffs are coming, we all do, so that's not what I'm asking. I'm wondering if anybody has any info on when, how many, what will be hit... Basically, any details other than "the winter is coming" kind of foreshadowing. I'm tired of worrying... — read more
It finally slowed down. I hope so.
A while ago it was worrying because people were leaving all the time. All my great colleagues have found their way out. Well, now all of a sudden I don't hear the news that anyone has left. Either the departures have slowed down a bit or there is... — read more
Why are there so many administrative staff?
They can engineers, geologists and professional staff, yet keep an assistant for each Exec on 14? This is a 1500 person $19/share company. The execs at Apache are SR Managers at more prestigious companies. How do they justify this? Someone needs to... — read more
Vaccination Mandatory or weekly Testing?!
Just wow. I'm pro choice and vaccinated but Sheesh. How will Apache handle?
