Vaccine mandate
So now requiring all employees to be vaccinated and boosted. Odd timing when we know the vaccine doesn’t work against omicron. Starbucks even dropped their mandatory. Is this just a way to reduce the workforce?
No need for layoffs
Attrition is bad enough that I believe we're safe from layoffs for quite a while.
Townhall today
Let's see what comes of it. I hear new items on return to work will be discussed.
Hostile work environment
Does anybody else feel like they're back in high school? That's what it's been starting to look like with all the cliques, manager's pets who can do no wrong, and overall backstabbing culture. It hasn't always been like this, so I'm not sure if this... — read more
When will there be more layoffs?
The end of the year is nearing, it'd be good to know if they're planning to make any more cuts any time soon.

Housing Market
Will the The Woodlands, TX and Houston TX real estate market recover from the the Oil Industry downturn and continued layoffs that are occurring?
Throwing in the Towel?
So Hess is now doing a $1B stock buyback. Sounds like they have no good prospects to invest in so buying back stock is the best alternative. How long till a major takes a run at Hess for the Guyana prospect?
Incredible Shrinking Oil Producer?
Bloomberg Business Week is calling Hess "the incredible shrinking oil producer" in light of a new round of layoffs. When is the management of this company going to recognize that they can't make up for their ill-timed and ill-advised decisions of the... — read more

Lack of respect
Can people at Hess realize that a company is run by more than simply engineers and geologists? It's astounding how little respect you get here if you are in other departments. Do people really think that accounting and finance don't contribute to the... — read more
Employees are your backbone
I was treated awfully at Hess. There is no sense of loyalty or value as an employee there. People were promoted due to politics instead of expertise. Positions that could easily be filled in-house were done outside of the company devaluing its team... — read more
Hess can't last like this!
A company can't last that has people in lead positions that don't even understand how things work or know what their people even do! You also can't go from having parts you need to keep things running to being weeks out to get these parts to keep... — read more
Spiral is right!
Whoever said Hess Corp. was in a death spiral it appears they were right. It looks like we are headed below 13 billion market cap and maybe 10 by the end the year. I bet we have layoffs just to satisfy the stock holders that something is being done... — read more

Why are we still investing in capital intensive projects like deep water oil (Stampede)? Doesn't our management know that our industry has been changed forever by technology? Short term, low capital, projects in our own stable environment will be... — read more
