Anyone in HR/Analytics able to share?

Between Northstar, Anderson, and the short lived BP Oil Sands deal, Devon spent well over $10B. Now they sell off the Canadian assets for $2.8B. Thanks for destroying value! The entire executive leadership team should be fired, but we have a do... —  read more 

Canada is gone, next item up for auction, Barnett.

Hurry up and get it done. Or start the restructure in Canada. Too many people keeping their thumbs warm waiting ever since the divestiture announcement. Make the changes already

Devon management is weak on articulating clear lines of authority and establishing strict accountability, in effect, many times promoting people they like and trusting them to figure out the job and do what what's right. Well, more than a few... —  read more

...other than the restack. You heard it here first.

The republic has lost faith in our leader Darth Hager trying to bring us to the dark side of the force. Wade Skywalker is no longer Padawan and will follow the likes of Tony Maul. The Republic is losing hope...

A coworker once told me, “give Devon two years and it will s--- the life out of you.” Truer words have not been spoken here.

I think this leadership has proven in the last several months it has a vision for Devon that is leading us in the right direction. Just look at our stock YTD. I know a lot of people want to leave, but honestly, I think that would be a mistake right... —  read more 

I heard that layoffs may happen next week or they will be postponed until May. It’s messed up what ol’ butterfly is doing. Makes a statement about mid April and so far hasn’t followed through. Next week we’ll find out if he sticks to it. Another long... —  read more 

Any chance we will have the Accounting department sorted out by Summer?

You think Sandusky would have taken a 40% premium to current share price?

FOR SALE: Formerly great oil company. CEO and COO won't leave until someone buys. Comes with large building that could be used for... could be donated to Oklahoma City as a tax write off. —  read more 

How does that help our business?

How much longer will accounting folks be left hanging. I think the waiting is worse than the actual event. Get this over with!!

Will management ever realize what an utter failure the bots have been and how much money we’ve sunk into them with minimal return? Obviously they know this, but it keeps getting pushed harder and harder. It’s past the point of no return. I have an... —  read more

Wtf?? Revolving door over there

Is it possible that nothing is at least rumored. Kind of strange given that they weren’t shy to announce that layoffs could continue throughout the year. At my office there hasn't been much talk in the las couple of weeks, everything is back to... —  read more 

fills my heart with fear every time I hear that word when I am on the pot

The janitorial staff come into the bathroom every time I'm in there, multiple times a day. Do we really need them cleaning the bathrooms 5 times a day? Or cleaning up the break room area 5 times a day? Why do we need such nice, expensive paper towels... —  read more 

I’m tired of these know nothing VP’s blaming everyone above them and below them for all the problems. They’ve apparently learned from the guy at the top on how to be Teflon. Maybe they believe they can save the ship but they are just sinking it.

Let's get the facts straight. 1) Devon is not a good long-term company to spend your career. What once was, is no longer. Those who still tout Devon as being an incredible company are blind. Don't listen to them and focus on doing what is best for... —  read more 

What's the total headcount at Devon now?

I have to assume most folks on this site are complete trolls or they are bitter from a sense of entitlement. For context, I've worked in several different companies across different industries and I've been at Devon for a little less than a decade... —  read more 

Do they still keep the trophies out on the reception desk in the rotunda? I remember laughing about those the day I was laid off in 2016. Thinking Devon wont see any more of those anytime soon.
