Norco re-org on the way after $500mm in potential value found by McKinsey. So much for "we can't cut and cope our way to profitability..."

Shell pays McKinsey to say something like " the price of oil could go up , down, or stay the same" Then uses that statement to do whatever leadership wanted to do in the first place. Their reports are cases of identifying that anything can be true therefore do what you wanted to do.
@kh instead of leadership having the ba**s to make changes, they just pay McKinsey to tell them what they already know. It's easier for them to present it to staff as "see, this is what they said we need to do" as opposed to taking accountability for all the broken systems and ways of working that got them into where they are now. It's a never ending cycle that Shell uses.
McKinsey has been invited in to identify efficiencies and savings at Shell locations several times in years past.
If they report findings now, do we conclude they really didn’t do a thorough job the other times?
If so, why did they get another contact?
Or is this just another showcase to wave victoriously at shareholders to appear that Leadership is actually leading?

$10 million please
@b0 ... The real truth applies to Chemicals Commercial organization: even after Starburst, there are still too many JG2, JG1, and LC roles for the size, shape, and actual needs of the organization.
@d8 yea end of May
@b0 GM got booted?
@a9 sources say their report identified about 20 too many JG3 and JG4 for a site that size. Reorg to be done by end of 2026 so packages probably on the way. May be why they forced the GM out
