TL:DR..Coffee talk instills yet more distrust. Mass exodus deemed unworthy of correction. Was recently involved in a coffee talk with someone SVP and above. Not going to say who or exactly when as I’m sure big brother could narrow down who is posting... — read more 

Any rumors of next round, I have heard some fairly unreliable rumors that there will be another round before year end. Anyone else?

As of now we’ve lost 50+ technical staff (eng/geo/land) since the layoffs. They are quitting, going elsewhere. What is HR/mgmt doing to combat this? That’s right....nothing. This place is toxic. The ship is sinking. Majority of my team is... — read more

They just crush Devon all the way. Maybe Hamm could teach our leaders what to do.....?

I’ve heard from several people that the 2018 bonus payout will not happen. Any truth to this? How could this even be the case when we’re just finishing up Q1, seems a bit premature.

What do we make of this? Are we looking at more layoffs? Strong wells in Oklahoma and New Mexico helped boost first-quarter oil production at Devon Energy Corp. even as accounting charges led the company to post a $197 million net loss in the first... — read more

i'm publicly asking the devon board to increase compensation for the exec team. DH's leadership, energetic speeches, and inspiring crystal-ball 2020 vision (full pun intended!) fully justify his 2017 $13M compensation (>50% increase from 2016). even... — read more
