Is anyone surprised by Rich Harbison’s letter acknowledging the deficiencies in this company? Specifically Action taking, AI Impact, Recognition, Career Opportunities, and Ethical Standards amongst the lowest scoring elements.

Honor the Ricky and you get the money. 💰 =👃🏾
@15z The VP buddy system program, promotions and benefits for your career with Phillips! Core values of safety, honor and commitment are just words and have zero meaning to these people. Just look at what they’ve done.
Helps to be Richard’s buddies. Look at promotion trails. Pretty obvious.
Speaking of good ethics, remember the couple from years ago who were "gettin it on" in the conference rooms. Ahhh those were the days!
@pb @nh the toilets clogged and overflowing with the number of VPs that belong on the ethics violation hit list.. favoritism, manipulation, discrimination, retaliation, conflicts of interest, personal financial gain, “entertainment”, abusing travel policies, everything in the book we are required to sign each year.
@d6 this. The lack of ethics is absolutely appalling at the top of the company:
SVP Transformation (DE - former Refiner and SVP HSE) …….retires then immediately takes a senior role with McKinsey (fresh off of a major McKinsey engagement AE66 through transformation) worth millions to their partnership.
CIO & EVP Emerging Energy (ZG) retires…….. then immediately takes a senior role with Alvarez & Marsal (who of course was just finishing up a major engagement integrating DCP into Midstream ) worth millions to their partnership.
the CFO’s well chronicled appetites, inappropriate affairs, conflicts of interest and ruthlessness in maintaining his Finance kingdom.
another non-functional senior EVP’s (similar tenure to the CFO’s) inappropriate relationship with a sensitive outside entity in years past that was well known but tolerated and filed away.
too many other unjustified exits to name of well - regarded and respected executives (some pushed out, others leaving before the axe, others just disgusted) since AE 66 / Transformation began at the whims of the CEO and CFO in particular.
You just can’t make this up. This place is a toilet ethics wise.
@d5 yes we lost a good VP to PBF.
@dz Don’t forget all the funding being spent on BCG and Pilko!!! They have no capability for solving refining problems, just headcount!
Phillips 66 Leadership, how ethical is it to outsource good paying jobs to overseas companies like Accenture?
To the “leaders” that read this, let’s be clear. This is a YOU problem, not “we”, not “us”.
YOU are UNETHICAL, do not appreciate the people making you a paycheck, and have removed all opportunities for advancement / promotion to favor your FRIENDS. Stop with your lip service, your actions show your true colors.
@ap I can attest to this. Some of my comments submitted were brought up in a conversation months later by an ELT member that my boss reported to. They know and are watching and scheming.
@OP so I think this is the third survey in a row that has highlighted ethical standards as lacking. What has changed!? Nothing.
What people are highlighting is the double standard that exists for management and those that bow the knee to them and those that speak up expecting more from those entrusted with leadership.
Rich is a fraud that has overstayed his welcome. Will be good to rid ourselves of him. Hopefully CC will see refining #2 for the boot li---r that he is and bring in someone with real leadership experience. Too bad we let the former guy get away to PBF as he and CC would have worked well together.
Most unethical management team I have worked under. They turn a blind eye to violations of the code of ethics and do just enough to stay legal in how they treat those that speak up. Truly disgusting and from a CEO that plays up his faith and midwestern values.
Employee Survey's are NOT anonymous! Let me repeat, Employee Survey's are NOT anonymous! 🙃
CC can’t get here fast enough
