All’s well
Enjoying your day of bliss?
Lower 48 Town Hall
What were your first impressions of our new leader? What was the core message? What did you read between the lines?
Changes coming to L48
Our new leader is making the line changes that the hockey player was afraid to do. The RBU and MCBU will merge into one BU. Many more Permian assets will be sold because their NPV is worth more on the market than sitting neglected as we focus on... — read more
Exploration townhall
Fantastic exploration townhall this afternoon - 3 presenters, 1 accent. Doing great on the inclusion front!
Confused
Did we just ADD a layer at the most senior management level?
Oil Price U-turn!
Wall Street need a pullback so “OPEC” provided the catalyst for that. Get used to that!
This has got to be a joke
I think we are all set on correct path for nothing but positive news only. Do not worry about layoffs here, we are positioned to provide stellar performance. There are no companies out there with lowest BOE/employee number as per reports. Is this for... — read more
No layoffs?
There has been zero talk about layoffs since the announcement about 450 jobs being cut in UK over a month ago. Does that mean that we really are doing much better and we can finally relax and remind ourselves what job security feels like? Or am I... — read more
Bartlesville-Dress Code
Does Bartlesville have a different dress code? I was there last week and noticed very few people wearing business attire. Come on people you are working for a billion dollar oil company!
May 15 Shareholders Meeting Questions
Besides the office, aircraft, and drill-ship contracts, what other leases have we entered into which we never substantially used? Who has been held accountable for these? Operating costs have gone down company-wide. A significant reason is due to... — read more
Showing the muscles
Love how all the PDVSA vs COP drama is unfolding. What a strong CEO to stand up against international bully and getting our stuff back. No other company dared to take such steps.
Managers, HR, and koolaid drinkers post gibberish here for mid-direction
I suppose they think it confuses and mis-directs people into not pointing out that the emperors have no clothes. Actually, they probably spend a lot of time reviewing posts here hoping someone doesn't call them out personally for their own ineptitude... — read more
Beating estimates since 1875
We are so proud of the fact that we have beaten the analyst estimates consistently since many a years. Future is all but bright here for anyone looking for carrier.
Perhaps COP is doing better than we supposed?
Is it easier to make a smaller company turn around then a big company. That is the cause of the stock uptick and positive sentiment we are experiencing. It does not mean the management is good or better than before just less stuff for them to screw... — read more
Positive spin posts
All positive spin posts are getting deleted. I think fake news and their followers have taken over. Use your own judgment.
To all the current Bozos Directors/Managers/VPs
Maybe management can learn a thing or two from this video: Best quote: “if you are a great person, Why do you want to work for somebody you can’t learn anything from?” https://youtu.be/rQKis2Cfpeo Well, I guess it is different. After it is the oil... — read more
12-Month High This Week
To paraphrase Reagan, here we go again. Our stock hits 12 month highs, completely due to our genius management, so they pat themselves on their backs until they get blisters. But this isn’t my first rodeo, so I’ll make some predictions here: At the... — read more
Last Year’s Shareholder Pay Vote
Note that 60% shareholders voted against the executive pay at WPP for Sir Martin Sorrell, versus 68% against COP leadership. This says a lot. Yet our response was “we’ll take the vote under advisement...”
ConocoPhillips to cut 450 jobs
ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) says it is cutting ~450 jobs across its U.K. operations by 2020, following its decision to halt oil production in the southern North Sea. COP currently has a total of 1,300 onshore and offshore staff and contractors in the... — read more
Best in industry median salary
Wow COP seems to have best median salaries in the entire industry. I don’t know of any other company with great other benefits too. Our EF operations are the best not in us but the world as per The Beeville Bee-Picayune. I will never think of... — read more
Canada
What does Canada do at this company?
Management not letting post here
Mistriously the posting on the discussion is not allowed in last 2 days. What’s going on? Who is controlling this?
Exploration Town Hall
Anyone want to place a bet?
So What has Changed?
So what lessons have we learnt over the last 3 years, that we have learned from and changed to be a better company? What mistakes are we continuing to make, and why?
Stockholder Vote
Anyone want to guess if we will exceed expectations from last year’s vote that our executives are overpaid? No matter the outcome, they will “take this vote under advisement”. I personally am voting against their pay. I’d welcome a vote on TAKING... — read more
COP positives
With all this negativity I thought why not start a thread of only positive comments about COP. I mean come on we all deserve a pat on back for such phenomenal last year! If you can’t post positive please move along and make your own thread. My 2... — read more
OXY buying old campus reorganization and move approaching.
Occidental is going to buy our swampland campus and we will reorganize and move into EC4. Management has noticed that for similar size companies we have 3 to 4 times and many employees so you better make yourself useful. It appears current thinking... — read more
Layoffs this week?
Are there layoffs going on this week?
Why there's so much anger and fighting..
Very simple. Statistically, around 85% of working Americans have a car payment, big mortgage, and loads of other debt such as credit cards or school loans. Then of course there's the details behind these loans, such as over half of Americans s---ered... — read more
Tired of Living? Come to layoffs.com
If the two whiners on this site had any guts, I'd recommend some good counselling, instead of sharing their tired old groans here over and over. Please move on. You complain about working at COP, but you wont leave. We'd really be happy if you did... — read more
Any more info on this?
Some positions will be eliminated when L48 BU is realigned and we move into EC4. Still indecision on Bartlesville to move it all now or a little at a time. Anybody has any more info on this, per chance?
More layoffs?
Anybody else wondering when we can expect more layoff announcements from ConocoPhillips? It's been a bit too quiet lately...
Why Can't We Have a New Office in Midland
OXY, Chevron, EOG, Pioneer, Apache and now Anadarko either have new offices or are building new offices with amenities like child care, fitness accommodations, cafeterias. Why not us. We want better. We deserve better. This place is a dump.
Laid off late 2017. Have not seen the vcip payout yet.
I was laid off at the end of October in 2017. The VCIP was a part of the package however I have not seen it yet. Has anyone else received their prorated VCIP?
