Permian unable to deliver due to resignations

The sh-t has hit the fan. Turns out you can’t deliver in the Permian with a demoralized work force and a bunch of “help” from BTC and Houston. Pretty obvious they are doing too little too late. It will get much worse before it will get better. I don’t know of a single person working Permian right now who isn’t seriously pi---d off with upper management. Top talent continues to walk out the door. Management doesn’t realize the bodies being hired to plug gaps aren’t nearly as talented or able as those who are walking out. They do seem to finally realize their bonuses might be at risk so maybe they will make some pathetic attempt to right the ship but highly unlikely it will be enough. Even a return to a 20% premium would just be getting us back to where we were in 2019 and wouldn’t make up for all the sh!t they have dr-g us through these past years and the broken trust. I’ve been asking others if 20% would be enough and I have yet to hear anyone say yes. Most people want to be made whole for the money lost over the past several years while executives were still getting their raises and bonuses. A return to 20% is too little too late. When people are getting such big raises by working for competitors there is no reason to not leave.

@1scs+1iLxT7kr same in UNCON; 20% attrition and no plans to address. In fact, heard last week that DS. “stuck his next out” by raising the issue with DW himself. Why are concerns just now being voiced and why does one have to stick their neck out to voice the concern? Pathetic! The only reason they’re concerned is b/c at the current rate of attrition there won’t be enough staff to implement their grandiose plans in the Permian, not because they actually care about losing talent.

Why don't we buy the Permian area newspaper and radio like Chevron did?
Keeps up the morale.

Wow! I thought Annandale was unique. We(bargaining unit members) have been treated like trash. No raise in 5 years. They place is run by those lacking intelligence. PA wing is full of DO'r flunkies. He has surrounded himself with contractors, who do as little as possible. Wake up Lu!s.
Yet DW was awarded $25 million, for what? He hasn't done anything. Profits are up bc crude is high.

“Permian unable to deliver due to resignations”

There is nothing to deliver upon. The industry is in irretrievable decline.

I hope we do start to see losses that can unequivocally be tied to attrition. In heritage chemicals we’re just about there. Too many old engineers in technology suddenly retiring, not enough new hires to plug the holes from contact engineers quitting, and so now every single mid-career quitter is a huge deal. A senior guy just quit at the new Corpus plant and they have nobody to replace him anywhere in the circuit.

Those who haven’t resigned aren’t committed like they were in the past. Quiet quitting is a real thing. Why should I give 110% to a company that treats me and compensates me so poorly?
