Let's be honest..... SWN blows.

I think now might be a good time to retire the formula . . . maybe a re-branding of some kind. Assets weren't invested wisely, it appears that 50% of the people weren't right, and the value of the organization seems questionable.

Time to lawyer up? I didn't think they could do this until I was cleared to work. And that won't happen until May at the earliest...

Keep your head up. You did nothing wrong in not being cut loose. There are always key ppl left to keep the company going. The downturn will eventually end. If SWN goes into bankruptcy (like my company) the daily operations go on until reorg or... — read more 

...In my department. Monday is going to be lonely Hell and I don't know if I even want to stay. I wish I could trade places because I just don't want to the only one left. I just did not expect it to be this bad.

What just happened to us? Why us?

Hopefully you folks weren't that bad of workers that you won't be able to find new jobs.

SWN's VPs and most managers remind me of spoiled kids that grew up using Mommy and Daddy's credit cards. They never had to pay the bills they just sought personal gratification. Now they went and spent a bunch of money and look here, they have to pay... — read more 

Does anyone know if any Sr. Mgmt. has been laid-off? I haven't heard of any so far. The mgmt at SWN was extremely top-heavy prior to yesterday.,,and apparently even more so now. I read another post that Mueller's pay and bonuses over the past few... — read more 

With the markets, don't wait for Merrill-Lynch to contact you. Call them and control what's left in your plan NOW!!! Contrary to the papers you receive, You don't have to wait for M-L to contact you. Shame on SWN for letting go of the people that... — read more 

I'm curious as to why SWN thought this was a good idea/deal? With years of downward pressure on natural gas prices and near record inventories, why would they take on so much debt at seemingly the worst possible time? Does anyone know the particulars... — read more 

I got the message from Bill Way yesterday and it was amusing in the sense that he tried to act like he actually cared. Gotta call bullshit on that one! I'm sick and tired of hearing these self-interested, greedy guys referring to the "SWN family". If... — read more 

Ask yourself - why am I still here? The answer...someone (ranked higher than you) believes in you and took your name out of "the hat". That person is probably dying right now because they could not take everyone's name out. Lets talk about this... — read more 

Any word on the field offices, specifically in Arkansas

SWN will let 1/2 of the staff go today and tomorrow.

Alright, how is the dust settling? is it over? I heard it was happening as early as start of day. Surely folks know by now who is gone and whatnot.... Any senior manager folks? hopefully a lot of them because there are way to many people that have... — read more 

Good luck to all of the employees today. My source told me approximately 1100 to be let go today. Welcome to Wonderland.

Sucks for those leaving and those who remain on a skeleton crew. Hope everyone displaced by this nonsense find stable footing soon. Good luck to all.

Layoffs are coming. People that are saying they're not are either; lying, stupid or living with obama in his make believe socialist world! Hang on and ride it out is all I can advise. Upper management needs to man-up and fall on their swords for the... — read more 

You people are awfully quiet tonight. What's the deal? What's up?

Do you think that they will be changing severance pay model? How likely is it?

SWN is reducing all the brokers in each of their plays. All their rigs have been laid down. Large layoff before weeks end.

Why does everyone think this is going to happen next week? Please give info

If you haven't noticed, natural gas prices are "fantastic" right now. Maybe we can diversify. I'm sure something can be done with all the bone marrow and teeth that emerge from the layoff meat grinder next week. Butcher shops, Grand Parkway asphalt... — read more 

This will come in handy next week: http://www.twc.state.tx.us/jobseekers/applying-unemployment-benefits

We have seen the ceo "step down". The head of HR has been let go. The stock has continued to tank, and we have 0 drilling rigs running throughout the whole company.... What's next?

Boom and bust are the nature of the business. SWN has been fortunate to have been "booming" for as long as it has, but the realities of a commodity business can be brutal, so retraction is inevitable until such time as prices recover. SWN's situation... — read more
