Did ANYBODY learn today they were laid off or not?

Down to 5 companies, exploration, development, production, downstream, and XTO, no chemicals, no URC, and no EMRE. 1/10 of the present size with half the present oil/gas assets.

4 months is not much of an incentive. Retirement eligible employees who believe they are safe will stay and those who believe they are vulnerable will wait to see if they get selected for the involuntary phase that has a much larger payout. Predict... — read more

Does anyone know the current headcount for “upstream” as DW is using the term? I’m currently in D/S (after U/S from years ago) but would like to know % being removed from U/S (750 out of X)?

35% of HR employees will be gone. Add to that the 8-10% NSI group recently departed and it’s a 43-45% reduction! Another 8-10% in next year’s PIP process will take it well over 50%! Ouch!!!

Way to go guys! Great timing. DW announces no change to the 10% dividend to be paid while we lose billions per quarter. Then immediately announces layoffs. Suddenly no more complaints about whether or not this is irresponsible... — read more 

Post your findings from the 11am supervisor meeting for GPC here.

It’s a little confusing. It says “ the Following groups of employees will not be considered eligible for this program: employees currently on an active Performance Improvement Plan” So if we passed the PIP, are we still considered under the PIP... — read more

We know they're going to lay off 1,900 people but we also know they'll only notify only a part of them today? And the rest will learn their fate between now and December 15? So the nightmare will continue for another month and a half, at least? Are... — read more 

The chemical company is basically not impacted as the margins are very strong post-Covid.

The layoff announcement today of 1900 gone by end of year is only thing we can take at face value. DW has lost all credibility for his deception back in May with the veiled layoffs. Do not believe the numbers through the next 2 years is set. If I... — read more
