Will history repeat itself, again? Every time the economy dives, our leadership’s response is to reduce headcount. What does Q3-4 have in store for us?

Instead of focusing on energy this company has decided to embrace social woke change. Move over Disney and All State, here comes woke COP.

Now that I look back on how it was when I first got a job here, this seems like a completely different company to me. In a negative sense, unfortunately. It worries me what all this will look like in a few years

Curious to hear from some concho people, I myself left on my own accord after the merger for some background context on myself. I've heard some grumblings from people but nobody likes change that's for sure as well. Concho was a great place to work... —  read more 

It looks like the company no longer has the capacity to attract capable, young people. Perhaps Conoco doesn't even want talents anymore?

I have got to say I was a little nervous when ConocoPhillips sold LCGP but after working for Contango it’s the best feeling in the world! COP is a trash company, you don’t realize it until you work for a smaller company. Less management and we don’t... —  read more 

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/conocophillips-reports-first-quarter-2022-110000553.html Unfortunately, I don't have any hopes that we will somehow benefit much from the fact that Conoco reported a five-fold increase in profit from a year ago... —  read more 

Airbnb just announced one of the most flexible work policies in the world. Work from any office or your home. Live anywhere in the country and get paid the same no matter where you live. You can even live abroad for 90 days at a time in a country-... —  read more 

My posts keep getting sensors on this site despite there being nothing in the T&Cs against what I am writing other than it goes against the liberal agenda. Real close to quitting site for good.

However, the current management just can't seem to figure it out. They think the folks that are leaving are "difficult" ones... https://jasonfeifer.bulletin.com/here-s-why-the-best-workers-leave-companies-while-the-worst-ones-stay/

Overworked, never enough. Feel like a failure to my coworkers, my family. I want the feeling to stop. I want the pain to stop.

Curious how people are feeling about the annual merit increase this year that averaged 3.5% company wide, while inflation rages at 7.9% y-o-y at the last reading? Essentially, the average employee got a 5% decrease in purchasing power for 2022. Will... —  read more

This is the silliest strategy for lowering pump prices I have ever heard of. When the last release occured, the price went down for all of a few days. And today, oil went down from $110 to $102, that won't even filter down to a change of gasoline... —  read more 

How much in net worth would it take to leave COP? If the stock keeps climbing I may cash it all in an exit this place

Any experience on what is ConocoPhillips policy after turning the notice? Do they walk you off and cut your badge immediately?

At the time of the split, JJ said RL was more of a good old boy than a leader capable of growing and leading the company’s upstream plans. JJ thought RL incapable of identifying true leaders, was more likely to choose those he personally liked, and... —  read more 

Talent and skills used to be very important. Now it’s like those things are at the bottom of the list of priorities they look at when hiring new employees? I have a feeling that everything is more important than actual skills and talent.

Currently on internal hiring's Conoco will only put women in positions that open up regardless of experience. There have been multiple positions of Staff and Senior personnel applying for the same job type in a different area. The person that got the... —  read more 

Any one? Any one?

I've seen a bunch of people saying Interest rates are skyrocketing but I'm still not sure why I should care or what that means for me.

How many people are going to start wearing jeans on Monday?

Can anyone confirm that the folks in Midland received an additional 10% cost of living increase on top of the 4.5 everyone else got?

Been a few org changes and backfills recently after people mysterious vanish. Are these layoffs, or did these employees find jobs outside COP?

I'm a little disappointed. They look like they've totally lost their direction. This company needs fresh ideas.

In order for anything to get better here, I think that first of all the leadership needs to admit its mistakes. That, of course, will probably never happen. Why though? Why is it so hard for them to admit their own mistakes? The bottom line is... —  read more 

Believe it or not, I don’t have a single colleague who isn’t thinking about leaving or hasn’t seriously started looking for alternatives for themselves already. I'm just worried about what everything will look like after the mass exodus, which is... —  read more 

Can COP legally keep the vax data they forced us to provide since the ruling is now reversed by the supreme court?

Since TLO focuses on negatives oftentimes, let's take a minute to celebrate stock price hitting $84, striking distance to the July 2014 ATH. The market has confirmed that the concho and shell acquisitions were great. I haven't checked lately, but... —  read more 

COP somehow are still trying to convince me I need a vaccine when a) many of the vaccinated people I know got Covid in past 3 weeks (this they can contract and spread just as an unvaxxed) and b)of everyone, vaxxed and unvaxxed, I don’t know anyone... —  read more 

The lie started with the email about Stat holidays in 2022. Parade Day was taken away and one of the first reasons given is that GCS is not accessible. That's a flat out lie. We all know the building is accessible during the parade, you just can't... —  read more

So a couple years ago the decision to move all software development to low code. Specifically, Mindex (which for some reason saw the product champion taken out of the complex in cuffs) how has that worked out? I honestly want to know if the... —  read more 

How many are putting in their notice after VCIP

It’s no surprise they sold the asset. Impressive a lot of these guys lasted in the industry being d-mb as a rock.
