Everything posted here is speculation. No Truth.

The association is now forecasting there will be 25,110 fewer jobs this year than last year -- a 50 percent decline in overall jobs in the sector. Its just too expensive. Devon will be selling all of it Canada interest. Layoff have already started... — read more

Just got a mandatory meeting request from HR, and so did others on my floor. It was nice knowing you.

I was laid off this year from Devon, and for being there a pretty short period, I was given 3 months of severance, plus bonuses, and they vested all my stock. Honestly easy enough to get by a year on. So don't worry, getting laid off could be... — read more 

I guess most story tellers here never been managers or involved in layoffs, I have been there twice as a manager and as an employee, so here it is; It's not that easy guys! Most seperation papers include a clause where you cannot get re-hired if you... — read more 

Did that even feel like a 3 day break? Went by so fast it's mind bottling. I mean it's not rocket appliances or anything but it just blue by.

Chk people are just spreading rumors here about Devon bc they have worn their page into the ground with a bunch of BS...plus it's not like they have any work to do. This site is full of garbage until layoffs actually happen. Best to believe it when... — read more 

Tuesday will be tough day at work. It's not by choice, but economics. The stock price is under forty and dropping. I saw gasoline at the pump for $1.79. It's going to a rough couple of years in the Oil Industry. Devon as we know it today will not be... — read more 

Those still at Devon, cheer up. I was laid off from IT in April. Was very pissed. But after 4 months of receiving a biweekly paycheck as part of Severance (your mileage may vary), I am calm and happy to have been saved the stress of "when am I going... — read more 

Why do we feel the 8th?

Lots of upper managers and VPs from G&G meeting today.... Prepping for Tuesday?

John Raines and all his early 30's suck ups, then move to all the other departments and due the same. This company's heyday ended with John Nichols. Used to be a good company now it's a joke. Sure glad we got that building though

What groups are to be part of the 9/8 layoff? Please indicate the respective percentages of these groups. Why hasn't there been any communication out about it similar to what COP released? Will the process be similar to the IT layoffs that took place... — read more 

Enjoy the holiday - Changes coming on 9/8 to drive the cashflow and drive up the stock price. Could be significant layoffs and restructuring.

Still at Devon, not sure for how much longer. Oil down to $37s today. Alot of people still seem to be in denial & think they're safe forever. Am I the only one feeling like the axe is about to fall?

Let's face it, overspending, over investing, over hedging and over hiring was rampant over the past few years with the oil speculation bubble that has been around starting at the $100/barrell price fixing a few years ago. That bubble has finally... — read more 

Why Canada? I thought it was all going to be regulated to OKC in the IT and Land departments. What positions were eliminated in Canada?

The layoffs have already started in Canada, several people have been let go today or given 2 weeks notice if you are a contractor.

The Devon Layoffs will be delayed until after Labor Day. Another 10% in IT and Land departments. In total about 80 people in Calgary and OKC.

What about the WARN Act? Isn't it supposed to help the employees in knowing when massive layoffs are going to happen?

Those with the most experience and cost. Shame on Devon. Snakes with no integrity

It is hard to work everyday here not knowing when the hammer will come and BAM no more job. Feeling sad and depressed

Did you ever stop and think that it's all just rumors? Most companies will issue some sort of statement when they lay off a massive amount of people. For example, Exxon, Shell, Baker Hughes, Marathon, and National Oil well all let there employees... — read more 

rumors of another round of cuts coming.

Layoff employees without telling them in advance, is what snake would do, not a company like Devon Energy that touts its integrity and upstanding in the community.

You didn't have to work hard to let a handful of us go. Oil prices go up and down. Peoples lives are more important. Did the how many ever IT people you let go impact Devons bottom line? I hope Karma doesn't find you. You have not only hurt an... — read more
