I got my sanity back after being laid off

They cut me in November. I admit, at the time, it felt personal. Looking back several months later, it was the best thing that could have happened. For the last at least five years there, the environment was toxic. The peer group I started with was gone, replaced by contractors and offshore teams. Every re-org meant new faces and new anxieties. I was constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop. Now that I am out, I can see clearly how much it was affecting my sleep and my mood. My advice to any American applicant is to proceed with extreme caution. The culture is broken.


Musical Chairs

If I was running a company, I too would just spend the majority of the time, shifting people around re-organizing restructuring the departments and hope eventually we would make money

I wouldn’t worry about the role responsibility confusion or ramp up time to get everybody knowledgeable about what they need to do I would just keep on shiftin

POST REORG JOB SCOPE REALITY

are others finding that the job they signed up for in this latest reorg is not at all the job they are expected to perform? I know it’s not illegal for an employer to change job duties, but is sure seems fu---d up. I really wish that I had requested the EOI.


The Layoff is not a Layoff...

in the traditional sense. The recent reductions are the result of a top-to-bottom organizational efficiency change. Every role, dependent and interdependent, has been evaluated for overlap, utilization of skill, and so on. This is not done. Once the final, improved, organizational model is done Srini will announce the 'transformation is complete'. Or some variation of that. For now, I am staying focused on my role. Doing my best to make sure I am a useful, contributing team member.


Reorg ideas

Proposed reorg to save Meg some time: Step 1. Merge P&O, G&LC and Technology into one business (2 EVPs can walk with all the entourage), merge C&P and T&S, get rid of EVP level positions for the rest of the org. Saves min £20m pa on the headcount with improved efficiency and accountability. Get rid of strategy function completely - it has been a failure. Strategy should be driven by BUL leadership and segment EVPs not central function..same for RC&S teams - its a testament to the weakness of the EVP that they still exist. Same for Ventures - no new businesses came out of it in 20 years of its existence so its an ego satisfying project for the execs but no real value generated and a distraction for the businesses.
Step 2. Get rid of functional organisation and organise by Business Unit structure, with clear P&L accountability. No central functions that do not feed directly into a specific P&L. Desperate measures for desperate times but company needs to put profits into the cornerstone of performance and current structure is way too broad to enable such focus. BULs will start cutting costs when they have full control over it.. Step 3. Very light exploration and central subsurface team which will enable new growth (outside of existing basins, otherwise driven from BUs). Any other ideas?


Got a Lower and now getting Reorged - What can I do?

Got rated a Lower this year. Unfortunately that was due to misunderstanding with immediate supervisor. I have learned so much from that, that I will do everything in my ability to make sure that doesn't come close to happening again. Ever. If I could repeat last year knowing what I know now, I would not have gotten a Lower, but I cannot change the past. It stings, deeply, but I accept that.

Here is the issue. I just found out that I will be subject to a re-org. I am concerned that having a Lower will make it very likely I will get laid off. Shell is my dream company. I wanted to retire from Shell. Since finding out about the Lower, it has awakened passion, drive, dedication, and perseverance.

I was hoping for at least three years to prove myself with Strong or Higher, but getting hit with a reorg with a fresh Lower. I very much want a long term career with this company. I have the energy and dedication. What do I need to do to make it happen?


Oracle needs to look closer at the GBU’s

There are lots of overlap, people doing stuff that could be done by interns, huge fat layers of mgmt that have been useless for decades. I am basically wanting good people to stay and the people who got paid off the backs of people who actually worked hard and had hard skills besides being buddies with someone executive. I hope oracle does the right thing and eliminates a ton of GBU mgmt or overlap. Customers wouldn’t even know the difference if GBU products even bad managers.


Layoffs at product division

Netflix‘s product division has pink-slipped workers across middle management and admin divisions, Deadline has learned.

Sources familiar with the layoffs note they amount to several dozen, or less than 1% of the 6,000-employee division. The cuts are part of a reorganization, and no senior executives in the product division were let go.

What happens after Lift and Shift?

Anyone out there with actual insight on what will happen AFTER the Lift and Shift? My speculation is that the L&S was expedited to March so that the receiving business units will have a chance to see what's under the hood before the OP/BP26 cycles start.

Transition 2009 was a slow and dreadful mess. Reshape did not improve anything. The quietly executed re-orgs of every division over the last 2 years has been really draining: all jobs that can move east have done so, with a lot of great people leaving the company.

I have major re-org fatigue and would like to plan accordingly. However, I'm at a loss for what happens next (besides share buybacks specifically and OPEX reduction generally).
