Good luck, may the odds be forever in your favour as you knock each other out of the field and grow resentment for the future of your livelyhood which ends up casting future management positions in the next oil bust 20 years from now!!!! Ahhh so... — read more

I can confirm because I am one of laid-off. If you're still working at WFT, what are you waiting for? The grass IS greener on the other side, while on WFT's side, the grass is dead or is dying a fast death. Get out while you can. The company will not... — read more 

WFT let go experienced and qualified people. At the same time, WFT is currently "hiring" internationals for similar jobs under the pretext that no qualified US citizens are available and WFT is spending tons of money on them to get their permits... — read more

Any remaining employees forced to take off and use vacation time this year? If so, how did management determine who, when and how much time?

I read chevron is axing some more employees in Bakersfield right now

Somebody oversold them on our performance and now its payback time Chinese style. Keep your heads down as they look for a scape goat to blame for another managerial f*** up.

None of that mattered when the ax started swinging though. I was one of the first let go last year when this massive layoff - that was only supposed to last though Q2...then Q3 2015, but a year later shows no real end in sight. I went through so many... — read more 

So apparently they let go of three new hires as soon as they walked in the door for their first day. Were they only hired to be fired instead of us? Dont know if there will be more today or not.

Any news on layoffs

Interestingly, this is the easy formula used by management. What about ideas like reduction in salaries?, or furlow?, or integration to eliminate duplications?, or closing business units that have never been profitable?, or a combination of all of... — read more

I remember doing a lengthy research on how to make better three real good ideas and the project manager never even responded---pathetic.

600 more to be laid off soon the reast overseas!

Getting started early this morning. 2 drafters let go so far.

It's too bad that Bernard Duroc-Danner is incapable of running our company. Yes the O&G industry is in the shits, but he has done an excellent job of running WFT into the ground before the drop. I won't be surprised if we fold if oil doesn't rebound... — read more 

WFT needs to take a look at the habitants of the 7th floor they have nothing to do. The lazy ass gossips pretend to work but they just pass the buck around until they've got it so screwed up the vendor cuts us off. Someone needs to do a pay scale... — read more
