Is the culture dying or is it just me?
I’ve been with EOG for a few years now, and honestly, the atmosphere has shifted massively since the start of Q1. Used to feel like we were actually focused on the engineering and the tech, but lately, it feels like every project is getting scrapped or moved to 'long-term review' while we lose talent. The transparency is non-existent. We get these town halls that are just 45 minutes of canned responses and zero actual reassurance about job security. Is it worth sticking around for the bonus or is it time to jump to one of the smaller mid-caps that aren't slashing staff? Feels like management is burning through the institutional knowledge just to show some cost-cutting metrics. I’m curious if anyone else feels like the ship is drifting or if I’m just being paranoid because of the recent headlines.
Quiet cuts in the field: Did anyone else get the call?
It’s been radio silence from leadership since the WARN notice hit the wires on the 28th. I’ve heard rumors that the actual headcount reduction is way higher than what was officially filed in NY, especially if you count the people they’re trying to squeeze out through 'performance reviews' to avoid paying severance. Has anyone in the Permian or Eagle Ford heard anything concrete? My lead hasn’t said a word, and morale in the office is effectively zero. We’re all just staring at our calendars waiting for a surprise 15-minute sync invite. I’m tired of the 'operational efficiency' buzzwords when we’re clearly just cutting to juice the stock price for the next earnings call. If you’re still in, stay sharp and keep your resumes updated. This feels like the start of a much bigger wave.
Strategy shift: Is EOG pivoting again?
It feels like every time we turn around, the internal focus changes. One month it’s full steam ahead on development, the next we’re pulling back and tightening the belt. Given the recent headcount reduction notice, is anyone else getting the vibe that leadership has no clear long-term roadmap? I’ve been here for over five years and this is the most unstable I’ve felt. We’re being told to do more with less, but then they turn around and cut the team size. It’s impossible to hit the project timelines they’re demanding when we’re constantly worried about our jobs or who’s next on the chopping block. Does anyone actually trust the current direction, or are we all just biding our time until the market gets better elsewhere?
Anyone actually get a packet today? The WARN notice is live.
So the WARN notice for the March 28th cut dropped, but it’s eerily quiet in the halls today. I’ve been refreshing my inbox every ten minutes waiting for the 'meeting request' that everyone dreads. Is this it, or is the company trying to drag this out over the next few weeks? I’ve heard rumors that this is just the first wave and they’re targeting specific assets to trim the fat before the quarterly earnings call. If anyone has been impacted or knows someone who has, can you drop a hint on which departments are being gutted? It’s tough sitting here staring at a blank screen wondering if I’m still employed by Friday afternoon. The transparency here is nonexistent as usual.
EOG Resources - The silence is deafening...
Unbelievable. No official word, no leaks, nothing concrete, but the atmosphere feels heavy. Everyone's walking on eggshells. Performance reviews just wrapped up, and the feedback felt unusually critical across the board for a lot of folks I know. Couple that with the 'economic headwinds' and 'strategic realignments' jargon being thrown around in town halls, and it paints a pretty grim picture. I'm in engineering, and we've definitely seen a slowdown in new project approvals, which is unlike EOG. Feels like they're holding their cards very close to their chest. Is anyone else experiencing this weird mix of normal operations with an undercurrent of dread? Just want to know if I'm alone in this feeling or if others are seeing the same thing. This uncertainty is the worst part.
EOG Resources - Rumblings about Q3/Q4, anyone else hearing whispers?
Hey everyone, been with EOG for a few years now, mostly in operations. Lately, I've been hearing some chatter, more than usual, about potential 'streamlining' coming up in the next couple of quarters. It's vague, but the tone from some of the higher-ups seems... different. Less about growth, more about 'efficiency' and 'optimizing the portfolio.' I know we've been through cycles before, but this feels a bit more pointed. Anyone else in different departments picking up on similar vibes? Wondering if it's just company-wide whispers or if there's actually something brewing behind the scenes. Trying not to overthink it, but the 'efficiency' talk always makes me a bit nervous.
EOG Resources - Management changes / focus shifts?
Has anyone noticed any significant shifts in management strategy or focus at EOG recently? I've been hearing a lot more talk about operational efficiency and cost control from the top, which is understandable in this market, but it feels like it's leading to some pretty aggressive resource allocation decisions. Departments are being asked to justify headcount more than usual, and projects that were greenlit a few months ago are suddenly being re-evaluated with a fine-tooth comb. It's making planning pretty challenging and creating a bit of unease. Not saying anything is happening, but the general tone feels like a tightening of the belt and a potential realignment of priorities. Trying to figure out if this is a strategic move to prepare for something or just standard business practice during volatile times. Anyone else get this impression or have any insight into what's driving these changes?
EOG Resources - Anyone feeling the squeeze lately?
Hey everyone, been with EOG for a few years now, and I've noticed things feeling a bit... tighter lately. Workload seems to be steadily increasing, and the pressure to hit targets feels higher than ever. Not hearing any concrete layoff rumors, but the vibe in my department is definitely one of 'doing more with less'. Anyone else picking up on this? Just trying to gauge if it's a company-wide thing or if I'm just in a particularly demanding division. Feels like we're constantly being asked to optimize and be more efficient, which is fine, but it's starting to feel like it's at the expense of actual work-life balance. Wondering if this is a precursor to anything bigger, or just the usual oil and gas cycle kicking into high gear. Curious to hear what others are seeing on the ground.
EOG Resources - Productivity expectations increasing?
Alright EOG folks, real talk. Feels like the ask has been ratcheted up significantly in my department over the past few quarters. We're expected to do more with less, and the timelines are getting tighter. It's not necessarily a bad thing if the resources and support were there, but it feels like we're being pushed without the necessary tools or personnel. Is this a company-wide push, or am I in a particularly demanding corner of EOG? Wondering if this is a precursor to anything larger, or just the nature of the industry right now. Anyone else feeling this pinch and seeing a significant increase in productivity expectations? How are you coping? Just trying to understand the broader picture here.
EOG Resources - Any whispers about restructuring?
Hey everyone. Been with EOG for a few years now, and lately, things feel a bit… off. Not seeing any official announcements or anything, but there's a definite buzz in the air. Been hearing some informal chats about potential department consolidations and maybe some roles being made redundant. It's probably just the usual end-of-year jitters or maybe market speculation, but it's hard to ignore the feeling that something might be brewing. Anyone else picking up on similar vibes or heard any concrete (or even just gossip) information? Trying to gauge if I should be updating the resume or if it's just a lot of noise. Curious to hear what others are seeing or hearing, especially those in different divisions. Stay safe out there.
EOG Resources - Anyone else feeling the pressure?
Just wanted to see if I'm alone here. Been working on some projects that feel… intense. Longer hours, tighter deadlines, and a general sense of urgency that wasn't there a year ago. It's not necessarily a bad thing, I'm all for pushing boundaries, but it does make me wonder what's driving it. Are we prepping for something? Is it just the oil price roller coaster, or is there something more specific happening within EOG? No actual layoff news, but the general atmosphere feels a bit charged. Curious if others are experiencing something similar or if I'm just caught up in my own team's bubble. Let me know.
EOG Resources - What's the vibe on future hiring?
Hey all, been with EOG for a few years now and things have been pretty steady. But with the market being what it is, I'm starting to get a bit antsy. Haven't heard any official word or even strong rumors about layoffs, which is good, but I'm wondering about the broader picture. Are departments freezing hiring? Are they being more selective? Anyone in recruitment or management have any insights on what the hiring landscape looks like internally and for potential new hires? Trying to get a sense of whether now is a good time to start looking at other opportunities or if things are likely to remain stable here. Appreciate any honest takes.
EOG Resources - Thinking about career options outside
Not trying to be alarmist, but given the current energy market and the quietness at EOG lately, I've started passively updating my resume and looking around. It feels prudent. Haven't seen any official layoff announcements, and I know the company has weathered storms before, but the lack of clear communication about future plans is making me a bit anxious. Anyone else in a similar boat? Are you seeing any signs of belts tightening that I might be missing? Just trying to get a sense of the general sentiment and if I'm overreacting. Appreciate any insights or experiences from fellow EOG folks.
EOG Resources: Any whispers about potential restructuring?
Hey everyone, been lurking here for a bit. I'm at EOG and the general vibe lately feels... off. Nothing concrete has been announced, no official layoff news, but there's definitely a sense of unease. Leadership is being unusually quiet on forward-looking statements, and some projects seem to be getting scaled back or put on hold. Anyone else picking up on this? Wondering if it's just industry-wide jitters or if there's something specific brewing at EOG. Trying not to stress but it's hard when the water cooler talk is all speculation. Curious to hear if anyone has heard anything, even rumors, from their department or contacts. Staying positive but also want to be prepared if things do shift.
EOG Resources - Feeling the uncertainty
Hey everyone. Seeing a lot of chatter across the industry about potential cutbacks, especially with the current commodity price situation. Just wanted to see if anyone at EOG is feeling the same unease or hearing any whispers through the grapevine? My team's been quiet, but you never know when things can shift. Trying to stay positive and focused on my work, but it's hard not to think about what might be around the corner. Anyone have any insights or just want to commiserate? Stay safe out there.
EOG Resources - Anyone else bracing for impact?
It feels like a lot of companies in our sector are starting to feel the pressure. While EOG has always been pretty resilient, I can't shake this feeling that something's brewing. I've noticed a few less internal postings lately, and some of the usual end-of-year budget discussions seem a bit more hushed than normal. My team's workload hasn't dropped, but there's a certain 'wait and see' vibe that's palpable. Just wondering if I'm overthinking it or if others are picking up on similar signals. Trying to stay positive, but the uncertainty is starting to weigh on me. Curious to hear if anyone else is feeling this and what your take is.
EOG Resources - What's the mood on the ground?
Hey everyone, been seeing a lot of chatter across the industry lately, and I'm curious about EOG specifically. Haven't heard any direct news or official statements about layoffs, but the general economic climate and some of the analyst reports are making me a bit uneasy. Anyone in operations, engineering, or even admin roles feel like there's a definite shift happening? Are projects being put on hold, hiring freezes, or any subtle signs that management is preparing for something? Trying to gauge the general sentiment without causing unnecessary panic, but also want to be prepared if things are indeed tightening up. Any insights would be appreciated.
EOG Resources - Rumblings and concerns about job security
Joining the conversation here because I'm starting to get a bit uneasy about EOG. I've seen a few projects get shelved or significantly scaled back recently, and there's been a noticeable slowdown in new hires, even for roles that were previously hard to fill. It's not just my department either; I've spoken with colleagues in other divisions, and they're reporting similar observations. There's a general feeling of uncertainty in the air, and while I appreciate that the energy sector can be cyclical, this feels different. People are whispering about potential 'right-sizing' exercises. Has anyone had direct conversations with management about future staffing levels, or have any managers hinted at potential changes? Trying to gauge the general sentiment and whether this is a widespread feeling or just my isolated experience. Appreciate any insights.
EOG Resources - Anyone else feeling the wind shift?
Hey all, been with EOG for a few years now, primarily in the field operations side. Lately, there's been a lot of quiet chatter. Not outright panic, but definitely a noticeable increase in 'efficiency reviews' and 'strategic realignments.' Heard from a couple of folks in corporate that budgets are tighter than usual and there's been some hiring freezes implemented on the down-low. No official word, no WARN notices, but the vibe is definitely changing. Performance metrics seem to be under a microscope more than ever. Anyone else picking up on this? Are other departments seeing something similar, or is it just a specific area I'm in? Curious to hear if anyone has any concrete info or just similar gut feelings.
Severance package expectations if layoffs hit?
So, with all the chatter about the energy market and some companies already making moves, I'm starting to think about worst-case scenarios at EOG. I've been with the company for about 8 years, currently in a mid-level engineering role. If the unthinkable happens and layoffs do occur, what's a realistic severance package to expect? I've heard different things from friends at other O&G companies – some got 2 weeks per year, others a flat 3 months. Any intel from people who might have gone through this at EOG before, or maybe know someone who did? Trying to be prepared just in case, although I'm really hoping it doesn't come to that.
Anyone else seeing budget cuts / hiring freeze at EOG?
Been at EOG for about 5 years now, working in the Permian Basin operations team. Lately, things have felt... weird. We were told Q3 budgets are tighter than expected, and there's a complete freeze on all open requisitions. Even new hires for critical roles are on hold. My manager is being super cagey about it, just saying "economic headwinds." Anyone in other departments or regions hearing similar whispers? Feels like something's brewing, and I'm trying to gauge if it's just our group or company-wide. Worried about what this means for year-end reviews and potential future reductions. Trying not to panic, but it’s hard not to when the vibe is this off.
