Some pretty weird comments in this thread about ol' Esso. "I heard that once you go in, you NEVER COME OUT!" It feels like a late-night-campfire-with-a-flashlight-in-the-face in this thread.
Anyway, if I worked there and they made this move it'd be goodbye in a second. In my career there's not a chance in hell I would kill my career by isolating myself like that. Many other professions require the close network too. They really do make some odd decisions, but at the end of the day, they really are majority owned by the world's largest oil company. I know lots of guys there, will be fun to see the reaction. My prediction, the younger staff will vacate (or try).
edit: also yes, they do hire experienced people, and yes, people do leave their company too. Just like any other company. Weird, I know.

What do your buddies think of work-life balance like at Imperial, similar to other oil co's like Shell or sweat shops like CNRL?
