With APA stock at 4 bucks. It seems as if belly up is the only way to go. What an amazing fiasco. I am thinking of filing a lawsuit before I get the shaft…again! In my separation agreement did I agree to not filing a lawsuit by signing, or upon... — read more 

Its time, it has been time for awhile. We know it, HE knows it. I welcome any rebuttal to the idea that this CEO has steered this company into an iceberg. None of it is due to market difficulties or anything else that he has laid blame on. This... — read more 

Apache let go of every contractor that works everyday with us. Some have been here for 23 years. Thanks John. Do the right thing and resign. You failed.

With the new impending layoffs will Apache have to file a new WARN Notice with the State of Texas if they meet the WARN number requirements with this new round of layoffs?

I'm surprised more hasn't been said regarding this here. Now that Project Ascend has moved into Phase II: The Descend (or Rescind), I'm curious how they are going to handle this next round of promised cuts given that we are all at home until at least... — read more 

Imagine if APA executives deferred their paycheck. Imagine how many jobs that would save in the second round of Project Ascend. Imagine the loyalty and morale they would build.

Let's talk about it. Raise your internet hand if you have seen something that made you question; Is this decision being made based on what is best for Apache, or based on what is best for a few parties external and internal? In this case it has... — read more 

I can tell everybody reading this, that if you didn’t work in the oil industry in the early 1980s, you’ve never seen a bust. It was so severe that if equipment broke down, companies would just drag it away from the main road, strip the decals off... — read more 

Why aren't we ramping up right now? Drilling costs are about to drop substantially, and we could take advantage of drilling out our full 2020 program at minimum cost to us. And then, when prices recover, crank up production and benefit from it on the... — read more 

Apache announced that it will reduce drilling rig count in the Permian Basin to zero over the coming weeks. Seems that management is taking this oil production and price war seriously and is trying to stay ahead of a bad situation.

Bankruptcy on the way get ready

More importantly, how does one manage the work/life balance so effortlessly... let’s plan a hunting trip y’all!

Layoffs are not far behind. This is serious business survival.

What do you think? Is COVID19 gonna cause layoffs?

More Layoffs. Employee relocations on hold. Sorry everyone. Hang in there

Hang on to your knickers and tallywhackers. If you were offered a relocation during Ascend, or if you are employed by Apache at all better check your employee email. New layoffs on the way.

It is a shame the email from the CEO this morning did not address the most important concern which for the next six months will be the coronavirus. Apache should now be considering telling office personnel to work from home. A delay in reaction will... — read more

Oil dropped by 25%. A few of us "Minors" (Apache, Marathon, Continental, etc.) comfortably doubled that loss. When oil rebounds, how will these companies instill enough market confidence to recoup what was lost beyond the price of crude? I think... — read more

The post that was deleted from someone a couple of days ago was correct. Second employee email filled with BS today says he chose to retire. I feel bad for the next one in line. Rough times ahead.

Apache stock closed at $9.55 and dropped to $9.30 in after hours trading. Way to go!

It seemed like a good thing that I remained with the company through the Ascend layoffs. This round of severances will likely be lower $ amt thanks to $10 Apache. Employee email filled with BS was sent out QFIH this morning saying at first... — read more

Get ready for the big one to drop - meaning your continued employment.

Post deleted about head of HR getting fired and walked out the bldg, why!?!

Apache owns this website. No freedom of speech.

Yes there are all the things. But this company has been good to me, and I love most of the people and wish only the best for our future. I believe in our leadership. If you aren’t trying you aren’t living. #teamapache #bringsolutions #jccsupporter — read more

Seems as though Thursdays are the new day we should call in sick

On earnings, the Ascend announcement today or what is to come tomorrow.

Why did Apache decide to get rid of some of its best people? Why does this keep happening over and over again? Who makes these decisions? Every time they lay off somebody who makes too much money (according to them, of course) they have to hire... — read more

For anyone who is getting a severance today and unsure if they are getting what is rightfully suppose to come to them, get legal advice. Do not sign anything until you do.
