Dysfunctional
In my job I interact with a number of groups. None of the groups are performing as well as they were pre Transformation. With that being said, Learning and Development is by far the poorest performing group I’ve encountered to date.
No Early Release in Bville
What a great way to help ki-l what little positive morale this place has. Not giving employees early release for Christmas due to “the holiday being on a Monday.” Not sure what Monday has to do with it, but I hope they know there will be zero work... — read more
It’s Not BT
I’m sure many of you have noticed that our stock has been doing very well recently. This is due to a number reasons, chief among them is the sector as whole has been gaining and the announcement by Elliott of its interest in the company. One thing is... — read more
Just Think
Well, as we head into 2024, I can’t help but wonder what might have been if P66 had spent the last 2 years getting the refineries to run safely and reliably. That’s not to say we couldn’t have done a couple of things that came out of BT, most notably... — read more

It’s Gone Quiet
It’s gone quiet about Elliot the last few days. Is anyone hearing anything through the company grapevine?
VRBO Stoney Island
I mean, think about it.
Why Not?
The investors obviously have confidence that Elliot can do what they say they’re going to do as evidenced by PSX stock gaining ~10 dollars a share in just the last few days. So why fight them on this by hiring high priced advisors? Just give them... — read more

Can anyone give some highlights of the most resent employee survey? What are employees’ concerns about the company? In the recent past it has all been about soft quality of work environment (flex time, working from home, pet insurance, L&D, etc)? — read more

Happy Thanksgiving to all except for the ELT and the lower level buffoons who gleefully do their dirty work for them.

Borger Refinery
Does anyone else’s Team Lead keep checking up on union employees? Such as coming to make sure subordinates are not sitting down during a 12 hour shift. Finding frivolous tasks for them do in order to sure the company is getting their moneys worth. I... — read more
Fire Sale - Part 2
At a meeting the other day the Investor Relations guy said that as soon as it was announced that P66 wanted to sell 3 billion dollars worth of assets, his email “lighted up” with companies offering to buy anything P66 was selling. This is most likely... — read more
Red Flags
If you look at the bios of the ELT you’ll see that none of them are original Phillips Petroleum, Conoco, or ConocoPhillips officers. The CEO did start out with PPCO, but he was in CP Chem for a long time. They’ve all knocked around at different... — read more
Org announcement & layoffs
Hearing rumors of org announcement changes and layoffs starting today..
Learning Day
If you haven’t read the story about Learning and Development, save yourself a few minutes and don’t bother. Nothing in it bears any resemblance to the way things really are in that group. Training was barely adequate before BT and now it has to be... — read more

It Goes Both Ways
I’m often asked “why are you so down on the company”,you had a lot of good years with it? I’m reminded of an old saying. It was said that you can have 100 “atta boys” but 1 “eff up” will cancel them out. That’s the way I feel about the company now... — read more
A Real Business Transformation
What if we could choose someone else from the ELT to become CEO? If were to make TR CEO and shut down BT, employee morale would shoot up like never before. We would be inspired again and feel like we could have a real career again. Top performers... — read more
Losing Both Ways
I'm an employee who has been laid off due to BT. So, I have lost my income but at least the PSX stock price has shot up because of the changes brought on by BT so that will help soften the blow and give me time to find other employment. Wait just a... — read more
Emerging Energy
This is your periodic reminder that Emerging Energy has gone absolutely nowhere in 2 years and is going absolutely nowhere. This is supposed to be 2 billion dollar a year business.

You Could Have Fooled Me
P66 said on the earnings call last Friday that the employees are “fully embracing BT”. I guess that’s what they get told when they visit the various field locations, but it’s as far from what I’ve seen as you can get. I know a couple of BT Champions... — read more

McKinsey & Co
Like him or not, John Oliver (HBO) presents a an eyeopener of a segment on McKinsey & Co. These “consultants” are the people P66 spent millions of $$$ on to advise them on “improving” the business. No surprise the results are what they are. Take a... — read more
Sucess Share no more
Success share program discountinued for 2024. But hey, if you are rated 1 or 2, your individual performance adjustment for VCIP increases. Maybe that will make up for "market rate base salary" and the loss of the "success share". Will there be... — read more
They Say
P66 says that petrochemicals are where the growth will be in future. And maybe it will be. But P66 also said that BT was going to do magical things for the stock and make P66 an even better place to work. Neither of those things have happened... — read more
Who are the defenders of P66?
Serious question. You go to most threads and see an identical number of down votes on all the comments, you get the odd comment about how p66 is great and we're all a bunch of bellyachers, how everyone needs to lay off such and such. So who are you... — read more
