Misleading hiring terms. Were you short-changed at COP?

I'm hearing about new COP employees who were promised incentives that were reneged after they were hired. Not a good look for a company that wants to hire the best of the best. Did this recently happen to you or someone you know of?

Chevron closing in?

With their recent moves and the ongoing rumors about COP being bought up by someone, what do you all think about this likelihood?

Shareholder Meeting

Was there any shareholder meeting incidents? I didn't see anything other than a few ballot votes that didn't gain any traction that sounded like they had merit.

Never ending “adjustment“

We’re in an era of never ending “adjustment “ and it’s been going on since 2015. Sure there was a bit of a break after the big one in ‘21, but it’s never really over. Keep your office sparse and your options open my friends. I hope everybody has... — read more

Concho Managers

Just a heads up to everyone. I’ve been told by Concho head managers (I am a hCXO) that ConocoPhillips managers don’t promote. This is the opposite of my experience. Concho managers hold resentment towards any employees trying to further progress and... — read more
