Thread regarding BP PLC layoffs

Can we get rid of the actual fat?

Can we for a change lay off those who contribute basically nothing and are not even trying? A guy I work with who's been here for a decade still can’t run basic reports. Meanwhile, the rest of us pick up his slack working late. How does he survive every single round? And why?

You mean all the SVPs that are still around even though their teams have moved or they’ve been replaced? I think I can count a few..worth a few million that’s easier than laying off or transitioning roles to India.

Same experience here. Tin foil hat theory: they are laying off the top performers so they have an excuse to get rid of the rid as they are "underperforming"

Out of 7 in my team only 3 survived and 2 of them are useless. It is laughable. My self esteem is actually boosted by being selected out as that is not a cohort I would be proud to be associated with.

Maybe nobody told him we're putting new cover sheets on the TPS reports.
