Thread regarding Southwestern Energy Co. layoffs

Experience doesn’t matter now

I am seeing more and more that people with experience are being exited and replaced by far less experienced people. It is glaringly obvious that experience doesn’t count for much and this is more about who liked it. So many promotions my god. I have just done my job change to someone who has literally no idea about the role or any technical experience of the role. This person had no understanding of even the simple control framework let alone the depth of knowledge needed on the risks. These are important risk based roles that can land us in hot water without appropriate controls in place. I cannot speak for how it is throughout the entire organization, but I can speak for what I see in my part of the organization. These people are not being set up for success.

The author of this post totally nailed it. I just wonder where this all leads?

I believe the big announcement has to do with our building. It’s being sold again and we’re quickly going to be evicted as tenants. A healthcare company is coming in and filling both towers. Never imagined this beautiful building and Market would be out from under us in 6 years. What a tragedy.

Wake up. No yawning.

This is not big news cause there are hundreds (this is not a joke) of us that believe Bill W is a rare leader who has guided us thru difficult times with grace and humility. We put him up there with Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos! We are thankful each day that he has been our leader! We will never leave SWN and would work for free if that’s what it would take to work for him. Thank you Bill!!

So got to be honest. Who has taken the plunge with our new “open door” policy. I went and did my “business” yesterday without a stall door, and I’ll you - it was liberating. No walls. Everyone new what I was up to. No shenanigans. No posting to layoff dot com. Just me and my tie slung over my shoulder. Two others came in and said hello just like at the coffee bar. I like the change.

Will we keep the Spring office open? I don’t think we will have any more layoffs this year unless they shut down the office.

I am from that “other” company and while still unofficial I had to review this board as part of my job. Based on the massive volume of threads, posts, views my recommendation to the BOD is to not have Way and Clay move. Those two can’t find there way out of bathroom stall based on what I have read.

Thanks to the hundreds of employees who have posted here about what an amazing company you work for (said no one ever)! Sorry it seems like you have been ruined by the Jokers.

Yep, there is definitely a “cost” to living up there. The good news is your kids from TX in 3rd grade can quit school now. That tops out the education they’ll get in Canonsburg. Good enough to get into that there mountaineer college. If you slip your realtor some o—ids he/she will find you a real nice place that may or may not be a previous meth lab. The pickings are slim. If this “deal” 😉 goes through only 30% of us will get this package. Way and Clay will head of into the sunset to ruin another aspiring E&P. Good luck to all!

Has anyone besides me looked at home prices in Cannonsburg? Pittsburgh? Wow? Hoping a COLA is offered by Can’t No Xtra (can’t post it just yet). Glad to be going closer to home and raise kids in a better place than TX!
