Thoughts? Any ideas?

Anyone know why Tom Liguori was replaced as CFO all of a sudden?

Missed it yesterday. Did she have anything good to say?

And those in other offices too, are you being ask to relocated to Bellevue, WA as well?

HS gets booted as CFO and no comments? What's going on?

Almost every team I have interacted with has mentioned they have an exception to RTO. Are there any teams who have been given the deadline to accept RTO? What does that entail, timing, severance, etc?

Those "quick business update" meets should be either out by now or coming out soon.

Today’s the day where some slacker always shows up to say the presence report is wrong. What gives? Is he on spring break?

Received an invite to an “employee hypercare” session and the only reason I can think of is my peakon comments. Anyone else had this?

Wonder what the agenda items will be?

If anyone knows later today, please share.

Didn't USAA have that capability previously with USAA Financial Centers? That concept didn't seem to work out well, so why is USAA revisiting a failed idea?

Does anyone have any idea what is actually different and what do others anticipate the net result will be?

Anyone else notified of their all hands meeting getting pushed out?

What's up with the recent need to sign this?

New name was accidentally dropped during high level meeting…
Honero!!
Wonder what group thought that up.

At belk if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is in fact a squirrel.

Just curious, what percentage of T employees respect and admire John Stankey? I would estimate less than 5%, what do you say?

Last quarter we made the numbers due to last minute unexpected deals and currency tailwinds

Looks like currency is now a headwind, anyone know how the numbers are looking ?

I have friends and colleagues at verizon and several other companies and organizations.
I've heard many, many complaints about D.E.!. hires but I've never heard a single positive thing about them.
Never once have I heard someone say they were happy they had the D.E.!. Never heard that they saved the day or came up with the most ingenious solution.
Isn't that odd?

With Q1 done and dusted, do we think we see more layoffs?

Exact number needed

Someone posted in the comments here... Please elaborate ?

whyh why why

I'm hearing last mile delivery should have nothing to worry about because the remote Associates that didn't want to move to Arkansas were let go. Thoughts?

Been thinking a lot about this while staring at seismic sections between meetings. As a senior geologist whos spent most of my career either in the field or buried in data, I never thought Id be the one posting about office life... but here we are.

Ive got to admit, these four days in the office are actually working. The open plan with HMP seating has turned out way better than I expected. Instead of everyone hiding behind their laptop screens at home, you now walk over to grab coffee and suddenly youre chatting with a reservoir engineer or a drilling guy about an idea that wouldve taken three email chains last year. Real conversations, real time. Its speeding up how we integrate geology with the rest of the subsurface team and honestly making our interpretations sharper.

What surprises me most is how this setup is helping us pull ahead of the competition. Other operators are still stuck in their hybrid experiments with half the team checked out on video calls. Meanwhile were building tighter working relationships, catching small problems early, and making faster calls on prospects. You can feel the difference in the pace of decisions.

Dont get me wrong, I still value my quiet time for deep technical work, but the four-day rhythm gives the right balance. Focused heads-down time when needed, and that spontaneous cross-team energy the rest of the time. Its making Chevron feel like a place where good science actually moves quicker.

Can anyone share/confirm what total management headcount are we sitting at after Nov impact and frontier acquisition?

Were or will they be affected?
Does anyone know something?

• how do we feel on the q4 all hands
• the first lady that spoke.. felt vague at strange on employee things to come?
• who is this lisa lady
• how are folks on legacy inmarsat side holding up?

Discuss!

"Grow up, get over it, baloney, you'll find another job!" Everyone's circumstances, obligations, etc., are very different. No one can know what someone might be facing in the news of a layoff or rebadge. If you disagree, say so, don't be a je-k about it.

Question for those with visibility into the Oracle layoffs:

Given the scale of the reductions, why does it appear that very few M5s were impacted and almost no M6s or M7s were affected? The distribution across levels seems disproportionate.

Is that perception accurate, and if so, what explains it?

Anyone have anything new?

It does seem like, on average, older more experienced people were laid off. Anyone else notice this? Our group is half gone, and it's ALL the older folks - I'm not talking really old, just over 40.
