The SEAT meetings are over and we are all aligned-- the ELT is a bunch of arrogant narcists who don't have a clue. Hint: headquarters is a bloated mass of people bugging the business units for more information so these requesting managers can impress their unimpressive management there.
Firing the CFO in today's price environment is a sign of disdain for Finance. It's also stupid to replace him with a non-finance employee but it's a symptom of the disease in finance. Dictator brown-nozers with zero leadership skills are promoted in finance. The bald guy in planning and The Witch are perfect examples.
Ryan told employees no layoffs are planned a month ago. It depends on what the meaning of the word "are" is. He told Wall Street the dividend was safe then cut it a month later. JJ was right-- he is in over his head and does not have a clue.

Someone tell me why the guy in charge of the gulf of mexico exploration all these years is now the head of exploration ?
