Happy Thanksgiving to all except for the ELT and the lower level buffoons who gleefully do their dirty work for them.

Fire Sale - Part 2

At a meeting the other day the Investor Relations guy said that as soon as it was announced that P66 wanted to sell 3 billion dollars worth of assets, his email “lighted up” with companies offering to buy anything P66 was selling. This is most likely... — read more

Red Flags

If you look at the bios of the ELT you’ll see that none of them are original Phillips Petroleum, Conoco, or ConocoPhillips officers. The CEO did start out with PPCO, but he was in CP Chem for a long time. They’ve all knocked around at different... — read more

Learning Day

If you haven’t read the story about Learning and Development, save yourself a few minutes and don’t bother. Nothing in it bears any resemblance to the way things really are in that group. Training was barely adequate before BT and now it has to be... — read more 

It Goes Both Ways

I’m often asked “why are you so down on the company”,you had a lot of good years with it? I’m reminded of an old saying. It was said that you can have 100 “atta boys” but 1 “eff up” will cancel them out. That’s the way I feel about the company now... — read more

A Real Business Transformation

What if we could choose someone else from the ELT to become CEO? If were to make TR CEO and shut down BT, employee morale would shoot up like never before. We would be inspired again and feel like we could have a real career again. Top performers... — read more

Losing Both Ways

I'm an employee who has been laid off due to BT. So, I have lost my income but at least the PSX stock price has shot up because of the changes brought on by BT so that will help soften the blow and give me time to find other employment. Wait just a... — read more

You Could Have Fooled Me

P66 said on the earnings call last Friday that the employees are “fully embracing BT”. I guess that’s what they get told when they visit the various field locations, but it’s as far from what I’ve seen as you can get. I know a couple of BT Champions... — read more

McKinsey & Co

Like him or not, John Oliver (HBO) presents a an eyeopener of a segment on McKinsey & Co. These “consultants” are the people P66 spent millions of $$$ on to advise them on “improving” the business. No surprise the results are what they are. Take a... — read more 

Sucess Share no more

P66 says that petrochemicals are where the growth will be in future. And maybe it will be. But P66 also said that BT was going to do magical things for the stock and make P66 an even better place to work. Neither of those things have happened... — read more

Who are the defenders of P66?

Serious question. You go to most threads and see an identical number of down votes on all the comments, you get the odd comment about how p66 is great and we're all a bunch of bellyachers, how everyone needs to lay off such and such. So who are you... — read more

The Borger Refinery

I’m hearing through the company grapevine that there was a large hydrocarbon spill overnight at the Borger Refinery overnight. Maybe if the company focused on running reliably instead of laying off people, this wouldn’t happen.

Wage Disparity

Isn’t it amazing that we have several members of the ELT making 10s of millions of dollars per year, that UPS workers got almost a 40% pay raise recently, and it looks like auto workers will get at least a 30% pay raise if not more, yet most of our... — read more

Stock Sale

I read a report that says the CFO of P66 recently sold ~30,000 shares of the company. Why would he do this if he believes that business transformation is going drive the stock price much higher? Maybe he wants to buy or build a new house in Spain.

The price differential between P66 and our peers is widening. Valero is now ~$20 higher than PSX and Marathon is now ~$32 higher than PSX. This is even more proof that BT is an epic failure. Not that any additional proof was needed. Everyone but the... — read more
