Do you believe that Conoco kicked and screamed and was forced to do layoffs by the big bad consulting firm or that they decided to axe 3000 jobs and brought in an external party to handle it for them?

Conoco Philips is responsible. As is BP, Chevron and all the others currently cutting staff. Consultants don't come up with the decision, they only help decide where they can get the cuts they want.
