What's up with all the anti-Semitism... Jews have nothing to do with how this company was operated in the past and how the specifics of the current "restructuring" are taking place. They are a convenient scapegoat in times like these... In fact, say... — read more

Count your blessings. The advantage we all at CHK have is that we know massive layoffs are coming. Spend the first few hours of everyday doing what you need to do to keep your job going. The rest of the day should be talking to recruiters even if you... — read more 

As employees are let go, everyone needs to talk...talk to others that stay, talk to those gone. A test of a company is how they treat the people let know. If the people let go are treated like dirt, it is a sign that it may not be a good place for... — read more 

All quiet in okc

It's about time Fort Worth was shut down. There are four Managers there that have absolutely no one reporting to them and zero to do. Lease Records and Permitting seem to be the only ones still working there.

all will not be quiet in FW for long, everyone in FW is going

Quiet in the Fort Worth office for now but expecting it to hit soon

Ditto 1:02. Working conventional again, my own pace, time with family, still have many life-long friends from the company, gained invaluable experience and knowledge, glad for my time with CHK but not unhappy it's over. I understand what the current... — read more 

anyone hear of any axes being dropped?

Give it up for Gatorade Packet! Be sure to tip your waitress, folks.

Guys, take it from me, it gets better. There is life after Chesapeake. I know it may not seem like it, but take it from someone who's been there. Sometimes the grass is greener....actually I don't know if anyone has greener grass than Chesapeake, but... — read more 

It's a fake. Screenshot of the original email or it didn't happen.

No fake. They have to file with the State of Oklahoma by law if they plan to layoff over 500 people at one location. This is happening!

According to this fake leaked email ...

I'm new to thread, but think what is trying to be communicated is that we are all gambling...here and anywhere else. There are no guarantees. You can't change what is...it is. Time to decide if you can 'double down' and do your job as long as you... — read more 

Does this mean that we do not have to contribute to the Cheseapeake Fed PAC anymore? Hate to write the check and then get my walking papers.

How does Chesapeake rank? We’re proud to have made FORTUNE’s 100 Best Companies to Work For® list for the sixth consecutive year. Chesapeake's rank for 2013 is #26. Our employees' dedication, work ethic and attitude allowed us to stand among the... — read more 

I have to say that I don't disagree with @2:10. We are still being paid so we do owe them work product so we don't give them any excuse to fire us and save the package money. We have little to no say in the matter so while worrying is natural, just... — read more 

@2:57...I have no clue what you are trying to say.

Tuesday's the day!

@2:57...I have no clue what you are trying to say.

2:31, You sound entitled, a brat with parents providing you anything on a whim. This is the real world. Resign, quit and find a company that will coddle you like the infant you are. There is no such thing. It's sink or swim. You want what you feel is... — read more 

@2:10 your like a person stepping out in front of a semi think it will stop, but don't worry that feeling self righteousness will get you no severance and lots of coworkers willing to dime you out at the first opportunity. Worst advice ever. Good... — read more 

Looks like 2:10 can't walk and chew gum at the same time. Your advice to resign if you're worried about your future is priceless. You sound like someone who needs to stay off this message board and make your boss some fresh coffee.

Chesapeake can't be trusted. I know a couple of guys at the same level - different packages I guess it is all about what CHK can get away with....Doug I thought you were more reputable than that

Next level of management being offered jobs this week. That announcement may not happen until next week. Working teams then picked by the new managers. Little people know their status in +/-3 weeks.

Most companies during layoffs are transparent and generally you get a good heads up, hence the childish comments in the event the worker bees aren't communicated too. Smart move would be layoffs will occur every Monday or every other specified day of... — read more 

Doug, is that you?

Maybe if you can't control something, you shouldn't worry about it and do something you can control...work. Many of the comments made are embarrassing and childish. I would hope that they were made by second graders but unfortunately, that's not the... — read more
