why would Noble do this? aren't the losing acquisitions of Clayton Williams and Rosetta enough? Management has lost its mind

oil prices are strengthening, business will continue to improve. Noble has laid off more than its competitors and can't afford to lose anymore worker bees. The management/director to employee ratio is even more out of whack now as the management... — read more 

I guess we are able to say now. No bonus will be given this year. We normally know how much by now, and nothing to be heard.

Why the "random" drug tests starting this year? It's just going to alienate all the employees who don't drink on the job or take illegal drugs, and chances are slim to none that problem employees will be selected at random. Why can't they just deal... — read more 

I am counting the days, hours, minutes and seconds to get back to work. I am so excited. I love Noble and cannot wait to get back to all the important work that I do and help my managers do. Although I have read some negative comments on this site, I... — read more 

So did we get the wonderful $100 bonus for Christmas this year? Or has ds ditched the tradition going all the way back to mr. noble?

What is up with Stover buying stock for the first time? Trying to plug confidence leak, create interest in stock, needing a write off, or padding portfolio for future benefit in sell off?

midstream company. Seems like they're doing a left midstream type of deals through their mlp. I'm not an employee but it seems like that company continues to struggle with what they want to be since Davidson retired. Any thoughts from insiders?

Yet another resignation. How many is that now, 4?

Noble is doing well, Noble stock s---s, Noble is hiring, Noble is awesome because If our safety record is good then all else is good.... A bunch of bull butter if you ask me.... some of our best people have left the company, our stock price is 40%... — read more 

People are quitting left and right. But, people are being hired left and right too. Check the job board.

There will be no Noble layoffs this year. But, I never forget. The past two years have been brutal. Management at this company does not care about anybody but themselves. In the meantime I will just hang on and wait until the industry rebounds, which... — read more 

Noble had layoffs in Nov 2015 and 2016, I have not heard anything this year. Does that mean we get to enjoy the holidays this year? Anyone hear anything?

Manager told me a survey was released at the Noble ethics seminar. It showed very low senior management ethics. Guess what? DS GW KF walked out before the presentation. Ironic yes?

Good luck guys!

How many failures in a row does that make? Should be obvious by now that JD and his exploration managers have no idea what they’re doing. Noble would be better off spending that cash in W Texas. As least those shales can be fracked and make money.

is quit. Nothing felt better than the day I left. I was an adrenaline rush. I rocked out to music the whole way home. I was severely wounded, but within a month I noticed that my everyday existence was dramatically improved.

This was told to people in Houston. Seems for real this time. They will sell to the highest bidder regardless of price this time.

Oil and gas is for su@kers. Get out or continue to take it in the backside. Everyone has it, everyone pumps it, supply high, demand low. Get it? Probably not. At least you will have something to blame for your lack of motivation.

Company has gone in the crapper. Never thought it would be the place that you're better off long term to be under employed and under paid. All functions appear mismanage but Finance as much as any other if not more so. It's incredible How much... — read more 

Noble's employment site is chock full of opportunities. Doesn't seem like they will be laying off this year. I guess... unless you are overpaid and then you will be dumped and replaced with a s---er for lower wages.

I can't wait to leave this company. I (like everyone I know at Noble) am waiting to see if the executive ivory tower will grace us with a 2017 bonus before I move on to a better job. Odds are they'll screw us again and keep bonuses just to... — read more

I've never seen an organization more focused on looking good instead of doing the right thing and caring for their people. Profits over people has been the downfall of this organization. Lies coupled with more lies continue to plague this company... — read more 

Greed is greed and what the company is experiencing is the same type mess we have going on with the government. Too management doesn't care who is hurt so long as their pocketbooks expand. Fat lot of good that will do them in hell.

Noble is not recruiting employees to move to Houston. Instead of doing additional layoffs they said they would be moving departments from Denver to Houston. They must be in some sort of financial trouble and stock prices continue to decline, in 2013... — read more 

There are too many young liberal academic types at Noble that don't know anything about drilling a successful well. They can't see the forest for the trees.

Layoffs are coming in October

Where is the bottom for this company? This is an eight year low going back to the 2009 financial crises and market crash.

I have read on several forums people mention August as a month some layoffs are expected at Noble. None of it looks too credible though, so I am not sure what to think about it. Has anybody heard anything about this? I would be very grateful for any... — read more
