here we go!

Summary of HSE TH: we have 6 positions defined. That’s as far as we got. If you’re in HSE, you’ll be in 2H event, unless you’re in STAC. Also, if you’re an FE, you might be in both 1H and 2H. If you’re a project professional, we’re not sure yet. If... — read more 

The lack of leadership transparency and town hall continual excuses is frustrating…. I am sick of it!

Imagine how bad it would get if they didn't consider us family.

As I sit here my heart hurts and I wanna vomit. With 20 years even with the bad there has been so much good. Coworkers have become family. This reorg feels different. I just want to wish everyone the best in what happens or choice you make. I am... — read more 

Any news on new damage to Houston offices?

Will MG deliver and tell us the truth that they don’t know what they’re doing? She will be poised for sure, but honest? We shall see…

So what do we call this layoff cycle? The crews making the new are have shark names … so where is the chum???!!!!

Why couldn't they just mention that and not be scared. We all knew the axe man cometh.

Heard some people are hosting celebrations. For those of you who officially said goodbye and pushed eject on this mess, how does it feel? What’s next? Do we think they’re likely to make us leave right away on the ‘minimum’ date or force some to... — read more 

Will someone in LT just stand up and admit that this is a mess and has ended up playing out the worst way possible. It won’t deliver the promised change and pretty much the only ones who will win are the consultants. Use uncertainty around the Hess... — read more 

Did they delete the shale and tight townhall thread?

There was a question what is the most desired skill - Les mentioned handling data and AI... So if you dont have this in your past performance, you're cooked. Technical TL is also mentioned many times plus HR mentioned 2 technical requirements. Looks... — read more 

I am curious how LC feels about being the hatchet man and knowing CL was going to replace him in a year if he didn't leave?

I’m getting seasick.

It's started. Let's see what they have to say. Hopefully good questions will be answered.

I have been gone 10 years. For Project Alpha, back in 2015, I thought EOI was Expression Of Interest to indicate you were interested in the severance package. What does adding the A out front of EOI mean now?????

Only leadership org chart shared with some scopes shuffled around and one more leadership role created, that's a 15% increase in the size of the PLT.

Comment here!

Go!

I cannot wait for the fallout of this reorg. They have the same incompetent people who got us here by hiring other like minded simpletons to represent and restructure everything. It’s really sad but it’s the only way they’re going to learn is by more... — read more 

Can somebody please ask LC these questions on everybody’s mind on why his exec advisor KG has 100 E&Y “consultants” with the exact same background from GM, HP, Dell at the exact same times as LC. If all of these people quit GM at the same time…... — read more 

To any meaningful questions you might have, our fearless leaders would like to offer you one, or any combination, of the following answers: “We don’t know yet” “That’s still being looked at” “We can’t say yet” You’re all caught up! — read more 

Stay tuned for next week’s round of layoffs. Where the focus will be focused the next layer of the organization chart…Cause we have no idea ourselves.

That's how tired I'm of this. I swear, if this whole thing isn't resolved by the end of this month, I'll most likely end up doing just that.

When will this happen? Which roles will stay in each BU?

Well not titled PRC, but that’s what it is

I was told who stays and who goes happens March 10?

After 10 years in a corporate job, here are 25 lessons I wish I knew in my 20s. If you have a corporate 9-5 job, this one is for you: Negotiate the terms of every job offer The salary, days off & job title can always be changed Take the... — read more

Whoever asked in Subsurface TH about the value case for an EE to stay. My hero! What other rockstar questions have you heard??

My guess is that they will only announce a couple of more levels of the organization today, not all of them. Thoughts?

Watching the videos on severance and benefits brings up decisions to make. What’s the pros and cons on: pension: defer or pay out? At best, the increase if I wait is a little over 4%. Seems like I could do better if I withdraw the lump sum... — read more 

We need to flip this around. If the leaders want the hunger games, then let’s give them the hunger games. Push and speak up at every opportunity. Use these town halls to let them know that we’re calling their bs. Make their day worse than the... — read more 

Do you think it is a large number of people that pushed the AEOI Button with just a basic severance?

Heard a rumor that they announced new hires within their first year will be safe from layoffs which was announced at wells townhall. Is this true? Does this apply to other functions too?

In the past people would apply for jobs they knew they had no chance of being selected for, but you can't do that when all someone has to do is walk you in to a Houston job. At that point you're sc--wed. No severance. If your job involves an... — read more
