This board is becoming lame with the "I told ya so" outsiders, old people calling young people entitled, and general bitterness. See ya'll again in six months.
Don't understand
I don't understand everyone's angst. Chesapeake has long been viewed as the Enron of the oil patch, a house of cards if you will. Sucking up leases for double what any other companies would pay to smash out any competition. Drilling wells like a mad... — read more
Ho hum. This page is now predictable and boring
AKM lovers who hate Dougi cause the circus days are gone. And now the mid management whiners who don't feel included. Yuck.

Pathetic Posters
When the company was doing well y'all bragged about it and did not hesitate to be seen in each and every event or party, now your bitterness spills out. Poor Y & X gen, not valued enough for doing nothing, although they are entitled to. I am 52, 115K... — read more
ROB
Let's be real; our biggest loss is Rob, the maintenance man with the deep well of tall tales.
Even the big guy gets it in the end.....
Hey I was CEO for a while - they fired me, can you believe it?
Nature of the Beast
I went into this job knowing at sometime I'd be let go. It was a fun ride. I loved making sure the eggs were over medium, or toasted the english muffin just right. I enjoyed making Aubrey's eggs correctly with tomatoes. Doug was tough to figure out... — read more
Don't forget about The LC
Not sure if this is the right time but you are still going to give to Life Church right? CHK tithe money kept me rolling in 7 figures. Just because oil is down doesn't mean we stop building campuses. Right? Someone? Am I right? Hello? Can't let... — read more
Doug Lawler and all senior management
I was told you are reading this for humor. Here is something you will never hear on a Q&A session because those that are still working are too afraid they will lose their job because they voiced their opinion and one of you took offense. You have... — read more
Free Food @ CHK
The "free food" offered at meetings are a thing of the past (for at least 9 months now), perhaps with some exceptions for high-level executive meetings. However, there used to be many times that breakfast, lunch and snacks will be served in... — read more
Over
Nothing happening again this year. If things get worse in the market mid next year it will have to happen again. Just reality people. If you don't like it get out of a commodity business and go to work for the government.
Do you know someone with knowledge at CHK?
I have a Masters Degree, Student loan of $400+ a month, kids that had to work fullt ime and gave of College for now, lost my home, lost my car, living with friends, furniture in Storage which is a struggle to make that payment every month! All these... — read more

Looking for gainful employment...
I was one of those who lost my job yesterday. I'm a single guy, so it doesn't really affect anyone other than myself, but it's still gonna be tough going for a while, as I have no savings. I've been living paycheck to paycheck for the past 5-7 years... — read more
CHK NOT ANSWERING PHONES
If you call their main number, 848-8000, CHK doesn't even want to answer their phones today. The recorded message says "closed due to a compartmental meeting". I guess they are trying to soothe the frayed nerves of the survivors or something.
Let's get one thing straight - this site should not be used to judge ANYONE at CHK nor CHK itself. Here's why.
This site does not require authentication to post. There are not valid email addresses required and therefore every person posting is 100% anonymous. Therefore you will get all sorts of trolls from all over the world. Anyone who thinks this site is... — read more

Thoughts on the day after the RIF of 2016
As an outsider looking in, I have been reading this website for weeks attempting to get a glimpse of what might happen. Mostly I was amazed at the amount of unprofessionalism displayed by some people. For those of you still employed... count your... — read more
