So far, no postings. Based on WARN Act terms, it seems that COP should be required to give 60-day written notice to each state for 500+ layoffs that occur within 90 days in that state. (So April layoffs won't count). Chevron's recent notices are... — read more

I check other companies layoff boards and people at those companies seem to have an idea on what is going on. I feel like us at COP don't have a clue what is going on. Poor communication is an understatement.

Regardless of how many cost savings they do.... such low commodity value is UN-controllable pressure on (higher expenses) E&P like COP.... looking forward to email from Ryan saying "COST project target is increased from $1bn to $2bn"

Any word on the GCBU Conventional asset sales and layoffs?

From Mulva's time, the fact that the company board appointed by him decides his compensation, just to watch the stock price go nowhere, is a scam. It reminds me of Enron, where the top management got well paid to run a company to the ground. If I... — read more
