Meg joined BP with a lot of fanfare from media and industry group. The employees appear to admire and hope that she is a change agent who will bring about stability, profitability and a sense of purpose to a fragmented and often troubled company.
Will Meg deliver the goods? The company appears to have the same initiatives as MA did and she stood up the same BL and MA actors..”leaders” when will surgical cuts start appearing when will teams be right sized?
@ew. I have, unfortunately, been here more than 20 years...toiling and hoping that bP can be salvaged. That is likely not to happen. Ready for severance and to start a real career...
Im being oüptimisticly patient. I want to see how it pans out through the rest of this year before I make up mind about the direction MO is taking the company. Then I can collect my bonus, and consider if I move on. And I’ve been here for more than a decade, so if I get cut I’ll have a decent severance.
@dy perfectly said and spot on. The better title would have been can MO pivot from perpetual corporate self inflicted misfortune!
i disagree with "often troubled"...should be "perpetually troubled with an endless string of acciddents, scandals, crises, reorgs, and strategic missteps".
