Thread regarding BP PLC layoffs

CEO is taking paternity leave… in Feb?

MA is taking parental leave in February.

And our new strategy is getting announced in Feb.

And shares vest in March.

And some re org rumors are for Feb.

And the article about bp needing to sell was published this week.

Why would he elect to take leave during an arguably pivotal time in our strategy…

… unless he’s not needed because of a merger?

Parental leave can be spread over the course of a year. Company and Leadership preaches safety first but our CEO can make time to attend the first call of the year when the topic is around safety?

He said he's expecting a baby with his partner in the last townhall. No fan of a single person on the current LT but...he's taking paternity leave because...he's having a baby?

Kudos to Murray tbh, looks like he is still able to perform at home despite being rightly written off at work.....

He never says anything of substance in the town halls any way. This entire leadership team is absolute cr-p. Btw, get ready for leaders to start “performance managing” people out of the company. Iykyk

To be fair, he doesn’t say when he’ll be back.

It’s strange he’s taking paternity leave regardless, and that it was communicated to the company as a small line in one email instead of one of the many townhalls we’ve had.

His parental leave is Jan as he is back in Feb

I think half it the problems of this company is that people don't carefully read/listen to what is said

Quote:
"We’ll start with an all-staff safety webcast on 9 January – sign up here. Emma, Gordon, and William will host as I'm on paternity leave. And we’ll say more about our medium-term business plan when we update the market in February."

So he is absent during Jan 9 WebCast, not Feb update
