Our 2015 COST project was a considerable effort and was supposed to right-size the company once and for all. Subsequent actions indicate it was a failure. How have the people responsible for this failure been held accountable? Exploration deepwater... — read more 

Who knows if this is related but just FYI: CPC laid off ~50% of the lab staff this round and I just heard the staff left are training replacements from Maxxam who will ultimately fill all of the lab tech roles leaving no full-time CPC lab staff... — read more 

When are the calgary layoffs

The metrics of the past 5 years (decline in: share price, dividends, production, reserves, employees, morale; increase in: debt) would indicate it is indeed time for a change. Employees have lost confidence in the ELT and the passive BOD. Confidence... — read more 

We have been told Bartlesville is going to have lots of layoffs and we understand. Is Conoco really going to shut down it's operations in Bartlesville and close the offices? Is closing Bartlesville due to restructuring and centralization? Does anyone... — read more 

It's not just what we do, it's how we do it. Accountability + Performance

We're pretty lean now and we have good acreage.

Houston Butt Sniffers who were moved up to Alaska at great expense during the layoffs, Houston wants you back now. They have figured out that they don't need you anymore, because they'll watch the small independents , who have only been there a few... — read more 

The environment up at surmount is bad. I did not make the cut, left today. What I heard from coworkers who still have their jobs , they have no faith in the company. It would be best to sell it for everyone. Give them a stable company.

I'll be graduating this month and was to start in June. This board has provided all kind of warning flags that I made a poor decision. As a result, I informed Conocophillips that I am rescinding my acceptance. I have received and accepted an offer... — read more 

So how many are left in the Calgary office? Anyone hear about selling Surmont and any timelines around the sale?

They are cleaning house today. Lots of operations staff let go however haven't heard of any leadership that got the axe. Looks like all these people that spend their days in meetings for 12hrs better dust off their coveralls if they want the place to... — read more 

If you are satisfied with the direction of this company, then support the BOD with your vote. If you are disappointed with the direction of this company, then turn out the BOD with your vote. Since May 1, 2012 when COP traded as "the world's largest... — read more 

With the current assets sales underway and now with additional asset sales being offered it appears that North American operation are shrinking significantly. We were told to expect up to 300 to be laid off earlier but now it is looking like more if... — read more 

If someone starts walking towards me with a piece of paper in their hand I am going to assume it's an offer and trip them

Why did they hold on to this? I get surmont as it would be embarrassing to unload so soon. It would make the elt look terrible in front pf shareholders.

Why is there so much field leadership.

I thought once the sale was announced and interviews over I wouldn't hate going to work. I was wrong , now not only do we have to wait yet again to know if we have jobs but also navigate an environment mixed with people who will still remain Conoco... — read more 

SJ Asset do you honestly believe that Hilcorp is going to keep most of you? The fact that the company has never had a layoff, and that interviews were very inconsistent should tell you they only intend on keeping a max of 275. They flat out told you... — read more

I thought OPEC cutting production would help maintain prices but oil keeps dropping. Looks like Surmont isn't going to make its break even. When is management going to say we messed up, take the hit and sell that asset at a loss.

seriously? 4th round of layoffs in 2 years!! what a plan less management who knows nothing other than harassing employees by announcing layoff rounds every 6 months.. i am so happy i was let go from COP Calgary office 2 years ago during COST... — read more 

May not be able to change the outcomes but may be able to send a message. A 25 percent NO vote would send a loud message.

The existing Cenovus employees sound pretty pissed at the deal. I don't think I'd want to be going over there and dealing with all of the "Us vs. Them" politics that will be going on.

The NDP and the Liberals have nothing to do with the layoffs. The tanking global economy does.

We continue to be asked how our groups could combine and if combined how many duplicate positions could be eliminated. It appears that as they ready EC-4 for us they are laying it out to accommodate future corporate structure and numbers. It appears... — read more

So will there be Houston c---roaches/buttsniffers backfilling positions "vacated" in Calgary? You know, the "high pots" the company bends over backward for who probably won't stay with COP anyway as soon as the downturn is over.

I think Conoco should give every employee in the San Juan their severance pay wether they apply with Hilcorp or not, you can call it economic stimulus for demolishing our county and all it's vendors.

I bet we would be more profitable it we just went ahead and shut Bartlesville down for good Friday!

Higher cost 😳 I thought they got rid of all the cost Oh wait, they laid off all the hard working people and they kept all the useless managers and vps.
