BP has a crippling toxic culture undoubtedly!! Promotions and performance reviews are based on "managing upwards" creating a "cult like" organisation. Seriously disturbing breaches of employee welfare occur often, read reviews from past employees. Yes, they are bitter but it is rightly justified.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Overall company culture improvements, especially employee welfare needs to be drastically improved.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
More diversity and transparency is needed at interview panels. Do simply hire someone because they worked so and so
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
No one is buying the transition story, simply bp was late to party and at this stage is simply an unwanted guest.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Basic employee respect! Really it is simple yet so many "leaders" at bp fail at basic human decency. It is almost a prerequisite that you need zero empathy to be a leader at bp! Absolutely disturbing.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The "cut throat" nature of oil and gas permiates uncontrolled manner at bp. Consulting and other contracting companies are shocked by this. The "Deepwater Horizon" incident didn't come from no where. Deep seated cultural issues are still present at bp.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Complete evaluation of middle management, during "bp reinvent" so much focus was spent on the top half of organisation that the remainder e.g. vast majority of employees were simply left behind. There has been so much talent leakage from bp over the last few years... Seriously ask Why?
