Thread regarding Occidental Petroleum Corp. layoffs

This was on 3/02/2020...................

So in 22 days we are where we are now. All this sh– went down the tubes long before today. They saw their screw up and had it planned, and if not we were living on the edge anyway. They had to see the writing on the wall months ago. Hand out good bonuses and take it back less than a month later. All the guys at the top are well off and never think they are not. VH has been with this company for over 30 years and the last few had the ability to sale millions of dollars of stock and pad her bank account along with all the other EC. Again, what EC drives a Bentley to work in an Hawaiian shirt and strut through the place like an arrogant jerk, and then our own leader can't send out an email to tell us of our demise. These are just facts and you will never convince me the whole EC team did not fail us. I don't wish bad on any of them, but some advice would be to eat some humble pie and come back to earth with the rest of us, if you want is to get this ship righted. We all fail in life, but you have the opportunity to bring us back for some reason. Does not say much about Chazen.

From Vicky:

Dear Colleagues,

Occidental is at a momentous time in its history. We are embarking on our next 100 years with the right assets and the right people, fully engaged in accelerating our company forward. We have bold plans, and we're already on our way to accomplishing them.

For the past 100 years, we have led by reaching for the impossible and achieving it. We will continue on this path, daring to do what others won't.

Now is the time to express this spirit in our Mission, Vision, and Values. Based on your input and feedback over the last several months, we have expressed our values to best reflect who we are as a company, and I'm proud to reveal these to you today.

This marks the first of many communications and activities focused on redefining and re-energizing our culture to prepare us for the next 100 years.

Thank you for your commitment to Oxy. I am excited to build on what we've started together.

Sincerely,

Clearly they meant 100 DAYS.

You got to love a company that waste so much money on consultants just to change the Mission, Vision and Values about every 3 to 5 years. In another 100 days, they will update this email with a new mission, "Don't run out of cash!" Wonder what the consulting fee will be on that one?
