NL safety
Why are the dutchies that were not reflected in NL getting saved by taking US and UK jobs? It sc--ws over the US and UK staff.
Any idea how many US staff are impacted (seems more than 20%)?
This site seems more resourceful than Shell HR and pathetic Bosses (not leaders). Do you think it’s fair to say, Shell USA laid-off more than 7,000 staff?
Rich’s 10/1 DW Town Hall
He made the comment that he found these constant reorgs comical. In the Yammer link of the replay, that comment was edited out. I guess when you’re the Golden Fu**ing Boy, Big Brother has your back when you say the quiet part out loud.

How does staff selection really work ?
Who sits on the panels ? GMs ? DMs ? TLs ? DLs ? Do they really review the talent cards ? or just use IPF and CEP and Salary ? Is HR involved (do they even exist as people connected to the business or just an email id) ? While the guidance is to... — read more
Ironic to some tyrant Team Leads / Managers are not impacted…
One thing I have noticed over last 14 years, most selfish / bad actors managed to secure their jobs even during reorgs! Shell promotes bullies and let good people go…
Did Shell Overhire?
20% is a big number. Exxon did its last major cut during Covid. However, just after Covid, tech companies went on a hiring spree and then had to lay off big. Tech is still retrenching. Did Shell too overhired? If not, why the cuts right now? The oil... — read more

Any RE looking outside of the firm now? Am I the only one thinking how pointless my deepwater skillsets are in the broader job market? Any tips on landing an interview? I felt like a wasted a decade of my life for nothing at this point
Would you join Shell today as a new hire ?

Why would anyone invest money, time and energy in going STEM?
Our economy is more finance, speculation and magical value than anything else. Innovation, research, breakthroughs, knowledge, production, are all apparently for a--holes. When I see how much “leadership” is being paid for extracting cash and moving... — read more
