Do you know how you can tell that WFT has cr---y managers? Because the only way they know how to manage is through fear. 'Let's keep everybody in line by constantly threatening them with losing their jobs (through firings or layoffs, it doesn't... — read more 

It may be a false alarm, it is not my intention to cause panic, but I hear from more and more people that they are preparing for big layoffs. Does anyone have more info?

I happened to drive past SRO the other day on the way to visit a customer and the place looked like a ghost town. Is anyone left over there or did they give up on having an engineering department?

Anyone know what’s happening with HR?

What happened to this place, everyone is hiding out, nobody is working, and the moods are like being at a funeral. This place is not what it was six months ago. That safety meeting was a disgrace, people are amazed in shame!

I've been here for a few years so all I know is the cr---y company I had the misfortune of joining when I didn't have any other options. There are some old-timers I work with who keep talking about the good old days when getting a job here was a... — read more 

What are they doing with it ? How’s it making out

Most of the best ones are already gone. Now we're at the point where even some of the laziest employees are done with WFT and are looking for something better, bringing the absurdity of this place to new levels. The leadership seems happy that the... — read more 

Is anyone still employed?

The DS work here in the US is set to explode, it has already doubled in the past few months and investors have high expectations for extravagant growth for the many months plus to come. The really jacked up part is that all the managers managers... — read more 

Weatherford closed now Baker Hughes to close. Years of knowledge going down the drain. Feeling really sorry for all that have and are about to loose there jobs

Can someone explain to the world what it is exactly that this group does? Covid has just allowed these plugs to sit around and collect pay checks. Let’s hope previous post about Halliburton is true.

Before I left a few years ago, Weatherford was trying to cut its way to profitability. Has it worked yet?

Welcome to Halliburton. It will be really interesting to see how the Globe VP and Managers fair. Most of them have been hiding / working in their home countries opposed to Houston, collecting big fat pay checks. RH is just running a friends and... — read more 

I wish I took the opportunity to leave when it presented itself a little over a year ago. But I was an id--t. It was the height of the pandemic and I didn't want to risk losing a sure thing for what might turn out to be a temporary job. I can't... — read more 

Any news on the folks who left?

Heard that today. Good riddance. Treats people like cr-p and is never happy. Incompetent nincompoop.

In the past 5-10 years we as the core have seen several leaders in the C-suite come and go. Each having their own sl--t on the future of our organization and bring in their own team. This is a understandable practise, it’s about trust and one must... — read more 

Period end of the story. Total waste or money

This group HAS to be restructured. Whether it be Integrated Projects, DS, WC, WL, etc they all are redundant and have ivory tower arrogance. During Covid it has got so ridiculous. Barking orders from Houston and all playing the cover you a-s... — read more

Make a guess.

After years of poor performance, lack of leadership getting shutdown.

Heard they rehired few they let go before... Some have bailed once they found something better. But re hiring family members again.

Recently I quit here at Weatherford and sure, I had an exit interview. It was conducted via Teams with HR, but all they said was sign here, here, Cobra, list of phone numbers and that’s it. Not one question was asked about the employee’s experience... — read more 

I’m satisfied, but I think I could have achieved a lot more in a company where favoritism is not as big a problem as it is here. I’ve always loved just my job but I didn't want to play games to be among someone’s favorites to achieve all my... — read more

You can put al the lipstick you want on a pig...but it is still a pig.

For those of us still hanging on by a thread, we are constantly micromanaged and consistently told we need to prove our value to the company. For what.

Crickets

I don’t know what percentage of those laid off are rehired, but I guess it’s very small. I am interested in those who agreed to be rehired, how much worse conditions did they agree to? From what I heard, they offered much worse conditions. It's awful... — read more
