Thread regarding Shell Oil layoffs

Why wait to find out? It's time to jump ship while there are still jobs out there before they are snatched up.

Is the money spent on digi-automation really worth it???? Why doesn't the company ask the people who actually use it, and figure out the hours spent going behind the scenes correcting the data. Just crazy.

Downstream Operation is already thin - may be just HR

Global Functions (IT, HR, Legal, Real Estate, Finance) won't know how many staff they need to cut until the businesses make their decisions. Expect this to be a several-months-long process.

For those Cowboys that think the Dutch are the ones who are going to be hammered, think again, a) this is a Dutch company, b) the Dutch government actually looks out for its people, so it’s hard to fire people over there, unlike in the US, where the government actively helps corporations milk their gullible drones. So yes, it will be the good Sheeple of Woodcreek that will shed plenty of tears. Of course there are cuts in unconventionals, they have been cutting them since 2012, you had plenty of time and warning to get out. Exploration, yes keep making big promises, while wasting huge amounts of cash and never delivering anything, can’t go on forever....It all cascades down from there.

Midstream is getting hammered...30% staff layoff
