Thread regarding Imperial Oil Limited layoffs

The layoffs are b—s—. What happened to many jobs one career, the career orientation of the jobs, and we hire for the long term. Geez

Lay-offs are coming. Msg from darren woods:
Despite the significant steps we have already taken, there is still more to do. Most importantly, we must continue efforts to structurally improve the earnings and cash flow performance of the corporation. Fortunately, the work we have done over the past few years has positioned us well. Our investment portfolio remains the strongest in industry, and the organizational changes we’ve made are enabling further improvement opportunities - many of which were in progress prior to the pandemic. Over the last several months, we have accelerated these opportunities while pacing investments.
As part of this effort, each organization has undertaken a country-by-country assessment to determine staffing requirements. Studies for Australia and affiliates in Europe have been completed and communicated to employees. We expect to finalize the remaining studies over the next several months.I know this work brings added uncertainty to already stressful times. I also know that these decisions can have significant impacts on our colleagues and friends. We are working hard to complete these reviews as quickly as possible, while ensuring a thoughtful and thorough assessment.
I understand the added burden all of this brings, but these actions are necessary to ensure the long-term success of the company. The work we are doing today will result in a more efficient organization that will emerge stronger and better able to compete through the price cycles inherent in our commodity-based business.
