As a hiring manager, I will interview former ConocoPhillips employees who left or were severed in or before 2015. We will not consider any current COP employees, especially those in management or supervisory roles. The reality is that we want employees who are visionary, honest and hard working team members. And based upon the interviews that were completed with current COP employees in 2016, individual qualities inch as selfishness, arrogance, data/fact manipulation, cronyism and a willingness to constantly blame others defines the "New" ConocoPhillips. It is true that some areas are better than others, but this is a direct reflection of employees imitating management.
