Heard AEP is hiring a new CEO.... Comes with a slightly damaged Tahoe.

I have noticed that for the first time in a very long time, there are no OKC postings on the Devon careers web page. Even during the recession from 2008-2010 there were always a lot of postings. I think that this illustrates exactly what type of... — read more 

The simple fact that those of us still employed by Devon are still checking this site regularly pretty much says it all. We all believe there are more cuts in the future. I am thinking the ones that have already cut maybe the lucky ones. I still feel... — read more 

I am so sorry that Devon is downsizing... that is really hard. Hopefully those affected will find suitable employment ASAP! Moving is tough... believe me, I know. We moved here in July and were promised low housing prices with a bit of land attached... — read more

I was a petroleum geologist. No real transferable skills (I can't do the same job in another industry like I.T. H.R. etc.) That was my fault for selecting geology as a major. Also Devon moved my family here a few months ago. Ugh, So yes, it still... — read more 

5K - 20K to let go. Get ready.

How's everybody doing? For us folks that were cut last week, is everyone hanging in there? Starting to feel like there's light at the end of the tunnel?

Glad I got laid off early last year when oil started to tank. I was able to take advantage of job opportunities that are no longer available. Devon was a joke anyway, after they bought out the people I worked for, it turned into a clown show run by... — read more

It is not so much the layoff, it just not understanding how they picked and why the 1000 where devalued. I think this hurts our future employment chances. When they say they are keeping those best for Devon, doesn't that imply we are useless? If they... — read more 

My fellow Devoner and Devonites fear not for Big Brother is watching. The Angel of Death has come, but is not gone. Be reminded the reduction in force is to be completed by the end of March. This means that our fearless leaders are still working at... — read more 

Anyone know how many layoffs the Geoscience department had? if any? Geologists? Geophysicists? Geotechs?

I was just wondering if whatever they give is enough I only collect total $26k hoe much did you get ??

Woke up this AM and realized that the moon didn't fly into the sun. I get all the venting that folks are doing on this site. Some of it is funny, some of it comforting and some of it vicious. Over the many years I worked at Devon I have seen a lot of... — read more 

( Assuming no job prospects until my severance runs out )

This is from ZeroHedge published on 2/17: Congratulations to Devon Energy: moments ago it announced that with Goldman as underwriter, it became the first company to successfully access the equity offering window in a long, long time sell equity in... — read more 

Oh, coming back to work is great when the entirety of the company is a bunch of cis-white-males. Very strategic that they are the only ones left.

Devon is going to sponsor a company food drive for former employees pets next week. Only organic, glutton free, wild game in lead free cans. Don't worry about the fat content, these people never could understand Devon’s live large philosophy.

Big rumor that Hager hates the 9/80. Bye-bye Fridays off. I wonder if it will get a severance?

How bad was production engineering hit? Isn't this usually the "safest" discipline for petroleum engineers?
