Anyone know what requirements must typically be met for the Company to consider your wanting to leave a “retirement” in order to get paid a pro rata portion of any unvested RSU awards?

This is a generic discussion thread to capture comments about potential Occidental Petroleum layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

I just left Bpx and I gotta tell you! That place is garbage. You'll regret your choice to go there. The culture is toxic. The business decisions are trash and the opportunity for career growth is non existent. We have it pretty good here at OXY... — read more 

Will oxy follow suit? The hybrid schedule is the only thing keeping me in this dying industry:

Welcome back to Feb 28,2022; the last time we were here. You languish in purgatory for a much longer and it will be bye bye Oxy... Hello Chevron or Exxon..You pick. You brag about being a big boy.... stock market doesn't think so.

Don’t we work for an oil and gas company? Seems pretty hypocritical to be paid by oil and gas for a living g and yet drive a Tesla to work that uses far less of the product we produce.

I believe our target is 20% but I've seen people get more than that. Will this year bonuses be good?

New graduate here and was wondering how do I be successful, it seems the engineering department I'm in is sorta a mess and not getting too much help from the senior engineers so kinda on my own

I don’t see Oxy laying off at all. It seems we are understaffed in many departments with no lack of work. In my department which is technical you could literally work 12 hour days and still have the same workload the next day. It is not about being... — read more

Keep sliding and see what happens. Even your crazy debt load won't stop someone from buying you at a fire sale price. Keep your resume current, going to need it.

That's the first word that comes to mind when I think about Oxy... Can't find the hydrocarbons...only buy them. If Buffet didn't step in, where would you be now?

When did Oxy's drilling department decide it could drill an ultra deep (world record) well in Colombia?. You were completely out of this business till you bought back into the GOM in 2019. This one should make you nervous... APC had a 100% carry on... — read more 

I thought we were doing good. What’s going on?

Anyone else heard this on the rumor mill? We acquired another company with struggling assets? Didn’t we just do this?

Word has it that Oxy gave free generators to the higher ups…not the lower level employees in need. True?

Why not move to a more desirable place like Dallas after all these bi-monthly devastating storms? Houston is humid and dangerous. Why do all these oil companies HQ out of Houston?

Looks like Oxy is finally appreciating the talent base we had at APC. It's about time, perhaps we will see some success out of you yet.

Has anyone here contributed after tax money to Voya and then done an In service rollover into an external Roth IRA? I see the form on Voya for in service rollovers and Roth is an option? Ie executed a mega back door Roth?

Looks like he is near 30% now. Do you think much would change if he gets to the 50% he has been approved to purchase? If he ever buys the whole company it would seem Oxy would change even more then.

Is it just like a regular interview in order to move roles?

2 questions how does one deal with bad manager along with that, how does one move into another engineering group. Currently not happy with the group I'm in.

Been reading articles and it seems we are lacking in production and revenue

When will we be acquired?

Anyone know if we will have layoffs because of the crownrock acquisition

Oxy’s stock price and dividend are still lower today than before they acquired APC. Why is Vicki still around after that value destruction? Where is the accountability? Im about ready to sell my shares but wondering what Buffett sees in Oxy? — read more 

We’ve heard a lot of rumors about a new package coming out in June this year. Any truth to this rumor?

How do I find out where a retired employee of Oxy may be. Is there an Oxy retirement community (website)?

Corporations are starting to dump their DEI programs. How long before Oxy joins in and dismantles its DEI program?

I would think since there were no layoffs before the bonus payout we might be in good shape to avoid any in 2024, as long as prices for oil stay up. So it looks like business as usual for 2024. I would think Oxy would still be a candidate for being... — read more
