For all the folks on this board that defend the ELT or blame unexpected oil prices: do a google search on "say on pay failure rate" and semlerbrossy.
You will discover that on a benchmark basis, our "management" is truly exceptional in their incompetence as judged by their true bosses-- the shareholders.
It's not bad luck or low oil prices. It's weak, arrogant, narcissistic, cronyistic, incompetent management. As long as the current ELT is managing this company, things will not end well.
But have no fears: they have hired a consulting company to tell them what to do, and to blame for the horrific cuts that are coming, due to their incompetence. Meanwhile they will collect their $20 million a year and three times that when they retire.
