LinkedIn is pure fantasy

I saw the reorg as an opportunity

Or rather, the final straw. I left the industry entirely two months ago. Got lucky and landed an engaging role at a small company. Sure, the pay’s lower, but there’s no amount of money that can buy the peace of mind I have now. Don’t let those... — read more

Downstream Townhall

So did we all hear AW admit that he does no work? Also WTF on his comment to celebrate people leaving? Is he day drinking again?

Management or us?

I keep wondering how many of us on the front lines will actually make it through this reorganization versus the bloated middle management layers. Somehow, the folks who barely do any real work seem to stay safe, while the rest of us get caught in the... — read more 

Hess

If we lose hess will we finally be able to get rid of MW and hopefully MN? We desperately need new leadership. What we got now is rotten to the core!

If your job or whole team is left standing

Do you have to apply for other roles or transition roles or will they just let you know there’s no jobs for you and then you give back your equipment and go into redeployment for a month? I wish the company was more clear and we didn’t have to come... — read more
