Company’s current leadership will become even more disingenuous and corrupt, feigning adherence to the values we claim to hold as a corporation.

Our leadership was very pleased with itself {belatedly} recognizing the industry disruption from unconventionals. Here’s my prediction: technology/cost disruption will be much faster than we imagine and recognize. There’s a lot of hydrocarbons out there, and the next industry disruption will be in getting these out exponentially cheaper/faster. We won’t be prepared, and this will happen faster than anyone in our company can imagine. We have managers in leadership, not thinkers.

Egos will flare, and nepotism will abound. Managers’ pets will be given 1 ratings and be promoted. Leadership will be utterly out of touch with those on the front lines. Executives will be incentivized to make poor decisions for the company while making millions for themselves and destroying jobs for the workers they look down their noses to.

With the recent negativity in company in general why not take this new year as an opportunity to recognize our strengths.

I say let's start listing all the positives you see from day to day activities at the company. It could be as simple as biggest VCIP ever in OIl and gas patch.

Let's all go nutes and crazy and do this for “OUR” company !
