Things are chaining big time, the oil world will never be the same and the execs know it. We'll probably see over 20K layoffs in next 2 to 3 years.

Caldwell will be cutting pretty deep here starting today. Admin.frac,cement depts. There is talk of maybe shutting down whole depts and moving some to San Antonio. Admin only has 6-7 people left most of them not need.

Ok, something about the layoff numbers "reported" by Halliburton vs the actual number of folks plucked from their work area and escorted off the property since December just doesn't add up in my view. As I understand it, before the recent mass... — read more 

Why would a company withhold ESPP from final pay and separation pay when you are not eligible for the ESPP program? Spoke with Fidelity and now I have to wait for good old Halliburton to send me my ESPP contributions in two to four weeks and since I... — read more

Fixing to do another round in homer city. Kind of expected with beginning of Q2.

To date, I can figure out some of the layoffs. HAL is laying off project contract workers and personnel involved on projects that were shutdown/cut back. Also, administrative, SAP whiz kids let go. The cuts are across the board, but mfg, supply... — read more 

i guess then, just maybe, something to think about, that well, maybe ol' JD wasn't the solution after all, and maybe, hopefully the ol' bugger is just'a laughing his arse off somewhere.

After 1-3 rounds of layoffs, then pay cuts and furloughs. The best place to be in the near future would be with a PSL that is spun off to a company that doesn't own that product line. GE, NOV or Superior, please take us!!

Lay offs delayed in duncan production maby two more weeks

Just spoke to a go from Liberal Camp. The HR came in with all smiles, laid everyone off with no transfers. Guys threatened to burn their shirts in protest.

I was laid off on March 20th and promised one week severance, unused vacation, and two weeks notice pay. Haven't received it yet. Anyone know about how long it should take to get this pay?

I am trying to wrap my head around this. At my districts PSL, of the field hands, the vast majority of those laid off have been employees and not consultants. Which goes contrary to how I thought business is to be run. (It could have something to do... — read more 

Wow! I bet even more on Monday, end of quarter.....

Congratulations! You guys won, you rocked the vote. You won, just what you wanted. Where is all the celebratory hoo haa? Where are the comments, the creative gaffs, the biting commentary the witticisms? Nothin'. The county morgue is a more lively... — read more

Any news on the layoffs in Lafayette, La.?

Just got the slip today. I don't think they know what they're doing and are just cutting out the most costly non-management positions out in desperation to maintain last summer's numbers. I slightly pity those who are going to have to finish the work... — read more 

Some layoffs in Houston as well tomorrow. They are trying to finish them before the shareholders meeting on the 27th.

Halliburton still treats their employees better than Schlumberger does. I have made many friends with Halliburton employees during my 40 + years with Schlumberger. We compare notes regularly and Halliburton does treat their employees better and with... — read more 

Baker's Inteq will survive and turn in to Hal. Inteq apparently has more advanced tools. The fact that Hal is buying Baker, its because of Inteq and Drill Bits, the superior tools and market share. Just rumors.

More layoffs at North Belt today, is this ever going to end? At this rate they'll be no one left in a month!

Intelligent completions?

Any word about the Victoria camp?
