There are now no more PDRs? What does this mean? Is it just another nail in the coffin of getting a new position/career progression? I guess there won’t be any need for them if there aren’t any jobs to post in a PDC.

My boss has been hinting that there's no longer a cliquey barrier for entry into exploration. I've heard there's a reorg coming. What are the current whispers?

You get to experience favoritism, nepotism, and exploitation. No growth at all. Leaders who only care about themselves and face no consequences for anything. Great place.

Finance is now a complete joke. Management does not know the inefficiency of these endless forecasts, scorecards, and endless requests on a daily basis. This new op model is half baked at best. They know not, nor care about the chaos they created... — read more 

The west coast refineries run a lot of Middle East crude slates, their on hand stocks are probably good for a week or so depending on where they on the resupply cycle. Assume there is some business continuity plan for supply disruptions.

Any concerns about Leviathan and Tamar? Glad I am not on location.

Can anyone confirm with certainty?

Can someone explain the significance of 90 points? Do they matter only for the company contribution towards healthcare premiums or do the 90 points come into play for other benefits?

Is the payout usually below the full target? Company prioritizes full payout for current employee only?
