The downturn is over
A rally in energy-company shares propelled U.S. stock indexes today. It's all over. Once everyone surrenders (that has happened last month) and all hope is lost, the downturn is over.

Can someone please explain this for me https://www.macroaxis.com/invest/ratio/COP--Probability-Of-Bankruptcy Is this at all accurate? Is COP in more distress than its peers?
Do they still spout a bunch of bullshit about SPIRIT values?
While there is nothing wrong with layoffs themselves, it is clear that many unethical things went on in these layoffs. Do they still talk about the so called SPIRIT values?
Guys... just relax!
Chillout meng! For those who got laid off, you'll find another job. For those in need of an income to pay your bills, I'll let you in on a little secret: short UVXY. You're welcome! You can thank me later, I take cash.
If they had put the same effort in marketing and PR as they did in management, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess
Yes, I was a new grad who got laid off. Yes, I was suckered into believing this company was the shit from all the reputation and marketing they did in our campus. I remember how everyone was talking about conoco, having the best training program, and... — read more

Vote
Who's the biggest piece of shit out of the Eagleford D&C?
Did they really?
Did the Leesville Mafia have something to do with Eagledord drilling manager L.R getting laid off in April?
HR and Ethics serve no purpose beyond protecting the company and the company supervisors from employee lawsuits.
HR and Ethics serve no purpose beyond protecting the company and the company supervisors from employee lawsuits. Nothing more, nothing less. Beware HR and Ethics.
Cronyism
The CEO grimly reports 25% of management is cut. What he does not say is that every one of these severed and retired got huge severance packages. All of the EVPs hand out severance packages to friends and cronies except one. HR and Legal hate this... — read more
Peter Principle
July 2011 the company announces the split. It is apparent to EVERYONE costs are too high. In December 2013 the CEO angrily tells his reports costs are too high! Then the COST project finishes November 2015 FOUR YEARS LATER and its apparent costs are... — read more

Townhall Meeting
We have the meeting and employees walk away discouraged. Maybe more cuts. Incestuous management in over their heads. One promoted for technical ability now wants more and more and more data to make more bad decisions. One self loving brown noser who... — read more

COP parallel in the song "Wake Me Up" by Avicii?
I was just listening to this song. Does anyone else see a parallel to what's going on? Some of the lyrics: "Feeling my way through the darkness, guided by a beating heart" - the darkness is the downturn, employees are the beating heart. "Wake me uo... — read more

Sex affairs?
Post if you know of any sexual affairs and what group.
So angry...
this board has arguably the angriest people... (not saying they shouldn't be). I looked at Chevron, Exxon, transcanada, enerplus etc. Everyone was very civil. This board comes in with pitchforks and knives. Good entertainment! Pass the popcorn.
Why be shy
For those who think that not being frank on this site is "appropriate" need to get a life. Why not be open about names and call people out for their bad management? After I got blindsided three weeks ago, I stopped looking at this site because I no... — read more

Oil Prices to Go Back Up
Much of this downturn has been driven purely by sentiment, so even once the supply/demand numbers start to balance again the industry will need cheerleaders like this to help sway opinion. As much as the media will try to convince us that this is... — read more
C'mon icahn! Do to CuntocoShitlips what you did to TWA.
Anyone counting on Icahn to buy this shit company then sell it or parts and stick it to those incompetent inbreeding managements, vps and CEO? Sigh... One can only hope. Please if you're a lance cock sucking fag, don't bother replying. Thanks.
What is Mr. Ryan's company email? I would like to email this site's URL to him, or text it to him on his phone.
Especially those threads that mention him. Anyone?
Thanks Obama
Because of his policies, Ryan Lance is the CEO. He also shouldn't have let COP lay us all off. I hope this country finally wakes up and tells him to flip the switch so oil prices can go back up. GO TRUMP!
More layoffs on the way in Calgary?
