Hashtag search insights

Interesting looking at hashtags, for example #winning (search: https://www.thelayoff.com/h/winning). Everything before July 2020 was from other companies (Oxy, Chevron, etc.), then the floodgates opened during PIP'ing season.

Indicates how rapidly things have deteriorated for us at EM.

Wrong people leading. Consultants told them they won’t succeed and can’t compete with others outside of oil and gas sandbox. Maybe they are right since we aren’t even #winning at what we proclaim is our core competency.

It isn't just lower prices for longer or forever that makes me pessimistic that things will ever return to this being an industry with opportunity. We haven't been #winning for years. Every benefit across the board has been devalued. This is a multiyear, even more than a decade trend. Wake up. You see a lot of people rushing into the coal mining industry these days? We are next. Even if the world needs our product the politicians and public opinion hate us and will do everything they can to k–l our industry or at least make it as unprofitable as possible. The days of big profits and big opportunities are gone and never to return.

We treat technical career people this way and wonder why we are #winning. Why is someone who wants to be a good technical engineer rather than trying to be the next CEO punished in the rankings? We need technical people but management thinks they are the only ones who add value.

Why wouldn’t you want to move to a higher cost of living location with poor schools to be paid less? Don’t you believe in #winning?

I agree, it is not pretty to lose jobs but we can make the best out of it.
Like we could have our own internal show called "The Exxon Apprentice" where supervisors start fake pip and then fire employees "You are fired" lol.
Sure the situation is definitely not pretty, but at least it will be entertaining and boost the morals a little.

For a company of engineers there sure are many illogical things going on. I've been asked to come to the office. Other people who are also in the office invite me to meetings. The meetings are then held via zoom not in person. So much #winning!

As for Guyana there is a rumor going around that we didn't even want to drill it and in fact farmed out some of our ownership percentage to others. Can anyone substantiate this claim. If true it is another great example of #winning.

There IS indication that NSI will stay high. Our VP has specifically said

  • we haven't been using the PIP as much as we should
  • "the board" believes our turnover isn't high enough to keep new/fresh ideas in the workforce
  • we offer a long term focus not lifetime employment

etc. etc.

Welcome to #winning

I'd say it speaks to the what the company has become - toxic and without opportunity. People go where there are opportunities. Oil and gas is in decline and we are leading the decline. #winning

Most people who joined the company are used to being the best - highest offer in their graduating class, joining the largest publicly traded O&G company, etc. We are a far cry from what we used to be and there is no sign the destruction is anywhere close to an end. Why stick around and wait to be PIPd? If you think this is the last of it you are naive. I strongly recommend anyone with less than 5 years leave immediately. Those with more tenure will have a harder time finding a job, but should also be looking. Follow the opportunity - it isn't at ExxonMobil. You can stick around as the company slowly dies and watch your good pay and benefits slowly die with it.

Excellent OP! I could add my own experiences with each line!

What to see our EM future foretold in print....great read "Lights Out" by Thomas Gryta about GE. The Sr. Mgmt arrogance is on par but EM, but our Dallas ' god-pod' has GE beat! #Winning

Simple, we send the best of the best and brightest as expats to teach locals or to just be awesome at taking on the worlds toughest energy challenges. After all, aren’t we the #winning?

Remember, #weareexxonmobil

ADP IS AMAZING!

ADP is doing great and everyone is happy here! What a great company! Carlos is a wonderful CEO! Everyone wants to work at ADP! #Winning

Does Exxon have Diversity and Inclusion and Vice Presidents that send you a poem to kick off week 1 of lay-off shortlisting? Hard to put a dollar amount on that value... #Winning
