Time for the collapse of the Devon era. Hope this is the time to let most of BUVP and Directors with worthless processes to be gone to save part of the $700m reduction. Anyone has opinion?

With all the layoffs many of us hope that they remove the current corrupt leadership in Artesia along with their friends. I've been here 2 1/2 years and continue to see the "chosen" ones get by with things that anyone else would be fired for. No... — read more

Hopefully these guys will be gone soon. Bunch of idiots. Some used to work for the federal government.
