Thread regarding BP PLC layoffs

Morale is terribly low

I would be very worried if I was at the top of this company, considering that the morale of the employees has never been worse. Even those who were very comfortable here are leaving. What else can be expected if the morale is so low? - Nothing good! However, those at the top are either not worried about it, or they no longer have a way to fix the situation here?

Frankly, nobody cares. Stay, go, be happy, or not, whatever, it’s your life; enjoy it.

No no the one that got me was "in case you are wondering" as if everybody's first thought when they saw the post was like...what? Morale low? BP?!?!? NO WAY!!!

"The lead content was put up by the admins of the website"

And they do that for the interactions I assume? hoping that these "generic statements" instigate and incite the otherwise chronically cheerful and motivated BP employees that come to this website by accident? Bruh....

Come on now....if you want to sabotage the thread you need to come up with a better angle than this lol

Seriously? It’s a website for disgruntled employees, what would you expect people to talk about on other boards, rainbows and unicorns?

@3eif Because if you go on virtually every other companies board you will see the same generic statements designed to prompt answers.

In case you are wondering. The lead post was put up by the admins of this website. Don’t care if you agree with the content or not. Just be aware

There is a third option. The leadership team can leave if they can’t get the price of the stock up. The stockholders are the owners. The leadership team works for the stockholders.

All depends when you bought in. If you like this LT then you buy more. If you think they are no use you leave.

"the share price has increased nicely."
du----s
most people who have bought in past 25 years seen losses {after divvy, taxes, inflation}
better off having put money in a cd that whole time

The purpose just fitted the time. Ever wonder how you hold a management team to account when their goals can’t be tested until 20 years after they retire.

I agree that moral is low - I think it shows that a ‘purpose’ company isn’t what people need for motivation - old fashioned career development, good pay and work/life benefits are still important!

Speak for yourself. Just because your experience is bad, that does not mean it’s like that for everyone.

Strongest performing parts of the company are the parts not actually ran by BP.

Had to laugh when the EVP in charge of low carbon and overpaying for wind ‘assets’ that will never make a return leaves to run a refinery group.

Of course you’re pumped up to get to work. The current staff is a mix of downtrodden old goes and a new breed of super oblivious cheerleader types, who believe what they are fed on LinkedIn and Instagram.

Things have never been better at bp. We finally got rid of the dead wood and now the people here actually do their work. I get pumped every morning because I look forward to my day. I can’t wait to get back into the office.

Honestly leadership is only vaguely aware that morale is bad. They don’t fully understand how bad it is. Even if they did understand, I don’t think they would be willing to do the things necessary to fix it.

I’ve worked here for nearly 20 years. No one has ever cared about the morale. Its just expected that you do what makes your boss look good and get on with it.
