Thread regarding Southwestern Energy Co. layoffs

Get ready for a bumpy ride

CEO should be fired b/c he’s the one who hired all the exec losers. They are short on real ideas so layoffs are the easiest thing to do. Expect more in early 2019. This exec team has destroyed so much shareholder value and it’s the workers (and their families) that pay for it. Get ready for a bumpy ride in the not so Happy New Year.

Emergency Alert! Breaking news! The shrew reports:

1) BOD has approved no severance for upcoming layoffs this month.

2). BOD also approved record ELT bonuses and bonuses for employees will be less than 10% across the board.

Shrew reports ELT earned their bonus by doing all the hard work and most employees are to busy avoiding layoffs.

Congratulations to the ELT!

This ends the emergency alert.

Hey guys! Me and the group had breakfast in the Market. Looks like the chef was starting to infuse the hot dogs with vegan bacon! Yum. Anyways, we were talking at breakfast about how many Supervisors aren’t looking us in the eyes anymore. It’s staggering. Also, I’m pretty sure I’m on the layoff list. My Supervisor said he didn’t want my Netflix login and password anymore. Nooooooo!!!!!!!!

WJW, you are not a rookie at layoffs Quite the opposite, a layoff pro. Done it three now soon to be four times since being a CEO

Bet you sleep well the night before and day of layoffs Hey you should get a special bonus like Jeff Sherrick did for closing on WV. How about a cool million for laying people off and getting a great nights rest

Seen a post saying no severance and benefits for layoffs this month. Is that true

I have a feeling it’s close. My Supervisor won’t even look me in the eye anymore. I have a sinking feeling. My Supervisor was super nice before the Holidays. We used to have breakfast in the Market, but now my Supervisor won’t look at me. Does that mean anything? Who knows. Maybe I’m overthinking all of this. My other “friend” keeps telling me the leaders here know what they’re doing, just give them time to “do their thing”. I just can’t afford to be laid off now. I am definitely one of “instant gratification”, so I racked up some credit card bills. I guess we’ll see.

Are layoffs happening 1/16 or 1/17? Water cooler talk = 1/16

More layoffs will happen when High Point buys SWN. One layoff for certain will be our inept CEO. Sure will be funny to see PG hand a box to our CEO and walk him to the door like hundreds have done before over the last 3 years

Christmas and the Holiday soirées are in the rear view mirror. The ELTs have awoken from their inebriated stupors. Time to put the layoff colored glasses back on (like Bott)! Happening for sure folks. Within weeks. Get yourself prepared. Save a few bucks for your rainy day. Go to your dentists and doctors now. Check out the workforce commission website to get your info on unemployment claims. Doomsday any time now!

Really funny and helpful. It’s important to learn these skills because they can be used when you look for a new job after you are laid off. Good luck finding a new job - energy companies are slowing down hiring. Plus the industry knows SWN leadership values chocolate pudding pie eating skills.

What: Big Layoff Celebration Announcement

To: All “Current” Employees

When: January 17, 2019

Details: You are cordially invited (if you are not laid off) to attend the 3 year and current year anniversary of “SWN Layoffs”. With the 40 Plus percent reduction and the “mystery” plus percent reduction this January, it is time to celebrate! Join me and the rest of the ELT for a festive lunch in The Market for all “you can eat” organic vegan bacon infused hot dogs and honey glazed sautéed Rocky Mountain oysters.

Pro Tip 1: To avoid the layoff “list”, come watch the ELT compete and win in a hot dog eating contest and see how many Rocky Mountain oysters they can swallow. An added bonus game is a chocolate pudding pie eating contest. We will need to remind them to wipe the chocolate off their noses (cause they seem to forget that).

Pro Tip 2: If you are a rising super star you must join in those games too!

Long term gas and oil prices are low so cash flow will continue to face head winds. SWN has hedges in place that will mitigate some price related cash flow erosion. But SWN’s expenses, especially G&A, are too high. Leadership can try to grow the company or cut costs or both. Since they are short on ideas to grow, they will continue to cut costs by layoffs. They have become really good at laying people off so expect more of the same. You’d be surprised how fast they can execute a strategy to get smaller. Too bad they can’t execute a viable strategy to grow. SWN just keeps getting smaller under Way and his hand-picked team of failure.
