Prediction: exodus of productive employeees who do not get a package this time around Once a few leave, it will snowball. Faith in managment is lost. Same thing happened at a few other peer companies last year. Once it starts, it is difficult to... — read more

Prelude

Buckle up folks, it has definitely started. Today it's managers, tomorrow is the main dish - everybody else. I'm personally really happy it's finally happening, the whole waiting game was worse than the actual layoffs. I'm now at a point where I'm... — read more

Next week

There was no email, there isn't a chance layoffs are going to start today. I'm willing to bet good money on it. Go to work and relax. Save your health. You can start stressing out when it really starts happening (I know I will) which will most likely... — read more

So...tomorrow?

Are we moving the predictions to tomorrow (Thursday and Friday are really not that likely,) or is it going to be the following week after all?

It will get better

Life after Devon does exist. After being with Devon for almost 15 years I could no longer watch the current leadership take this great company that Larry Nichols built and reduce it to a laughing stock any longer. I left and it was the best choice I... — read more

Nothing happening, again!

It looks like today is not the day after all. Everything is quiet, we'd probably know if today was it by now. I'm not sure how many more of these false alarms I can take. This is starting to affect my health. I am starting to hate this management and... — read more

Where to after layoff?

The entire industry is in shambles. Just look at the pages of other companies on this board. People have the exact same problems as we do at Devon. So my question is, where do we go from here if we are among the 300 who are slated to be laid off?... — read more

Union

Why doesn’t the oil&gas industry have a union that represents the workers? I’m younger so I’m not aware if this was attempted at some point before my time.

There is life after

The Devon you loved will be gone the day you are given your walking papers. It wont be Devon you miss but all the smart people. There is something special about working with them you may never find again.
