We continue to make interesting moves. What could be the future for our remaining refineries? I could see us continuing to divest the euro refiners but hold onto the strategic plays in the states. Thoughts?

Has anyone noticed this? Every day that I walk into the lobby and elevators, all you can see posters and signage of how BP is “Investing IN America” while they are laying people off. It is demoralizing. Who thought up this sh-t? It’s literally... — read more

I remember reading a comment about BPX needing their own board on this site while saying there were only 3 or 4 people talking to themselves on here. Doesn't really appear that way now.

bp shot up $1.00 intraday on the back of this news. Coming back off now however. Any insights? https://seekingalpha.com/news/4402053-bp-ticks-higher-amid-takeover-speculation

How useful is the conversation after being at risk? What's your strategy?

Some of you can handle this, but some of us can't. I'm already a nervous wreck when it comes to my job, thanks to an incompetent and unpredictable manager. Now, with layoffs in the mix, I'm this close to asking my doctor for medication just to bring... — read more

They were there worst enemy. Drive hires so many useless employees doing absolutely nothing waiting for retirement

I hear Emeka's next communication is scheduled for Tuesday,.so maybe that will breathe a bit of life back here.

It's obvious that the goal of these prolonged layoffs is to create a toxic and stressful work environment that will push as many employees out the door as possible. Well, I have no intention of doing them any favors and quitting. I'll do the bare... — read more

Am I the only one who's worried about how the scope of these layoffs will affect those who are left behind?

I’m curious, who here feels they’re most likely immune to layoffs, whether due to experience, seniority, knowledge, connections, or something else? I know most people assume they’re not safe, but I’d love to hear from those who believe they are and... — read more 

With all the news swirling about BP what are your thoughts? What is the likelihood we merge or get taken over by someone else? It seems like a real reality to be considered.
