Hearing rumours that there is going to be big announcement in the coming weeks regarding Montrose Coe. Good or bad, who knows?
Rooftop consolidation = closures?
I absolutely agree with someone who wrote that rooftop consolidation means closures. I'm afraid to even think about what this consolidation will look like and what will happen to us in the meantime. Maybe I'm worried too much...but I wouldn't say... — read more
SPS S&SPS SP&S
Quite confusing SPSSSPSPSPSPSPS all hands today. The choice of acronyms alone couldn't be worst for a starter. Neil and Richard very positive although they both are signing off and are the ones that brought OFE on its knees. All very exciting... — read more

You must get an employee’s agreement if you want to make changes to their contract.
The shortest stay at BH
I thought that the new colleague would stay here for at least half a year. Guess what? The person left after a month. If I were the management I would be deeply concerned, because I believe that such short stays here are not a rare occurrence... — read more

It was not outlined in my job description
I applied for a job, and now, not long after I got the job, I am doing many daily tasks that do not at all fit into the original job description I was hired to do. Anyone else? Maybe I wouldn't have complained if the work I'm doing would be... — read more

Divide and conquer tactics

Any jobs in Montrose
I'm looking for a job. Im pretty good on my phone and social media, also good at not doing any online traning as I'm too busy on my phone when I'm pressure testing or running a cnc. Also very good at crypto trading as I have a very good trainer. Also... — read more
Another Strike in Newcastle
Another strike in Newcastle likely, this time for a higher pay raise. https://www.energylivenews.com/2022/09/14/strike-looming-over-newcastle-energy-company/. Hot autumn for our leaders. Curious to see how this plays out.
They only do damage
I'm trying hard to think of a few things that our leadership did for the benefit of the company and its future, but I'm coming up blank. I wish it wasn't so, but what have they done to contribute to the welfare of not only the employees but Baker... — read more
What do you think about OFSE?
New organization structure annouced. The leadership team is so excited. What about you?
There is life outside
Considering the overall situation, I am surprised that attrition is not even higher. Why suffer here? It makes no sense, given that there are much better opportunities out there. Many are just wasting their time here.
Brent COE
It's all gone quiet at Brent COE again. That must mean that Unite have done what they said they would do and get a better deal for everyone. How's the new 57% shift allowance going then?
Brent Site
Nasty rumors flying around Montrose the Bakers have bought the Brent Avenue site from Angus Council for £3100000 are untrue. Bakers have no money for this folly. There is no way Bakers would pull a stunt like this with the current situation ongoing... — read more
Incompetence everywhere
The probability that a person who has no talent for a particular job will get the position here is huge. I have been working here for a long time and I think that mediocrity has never been a bigger problem than it is today. Do you also wonder how a... — read more

DT Layoffs - How many were let go?

Long term drilling project Syria.
Not seeing a lot of news about this yet. Any thoughts ?
Why
Why impose cuts on one shop floor shift pattern and not across the board. Why must there be 24/7 cover when not much work. Why say basic pay will not be reduced then use negative base adjustment (fancy accounting) to reduce basic pay. Answers on the... — read more
Another Re-Org!!!
Lost count on how many re-orgs and org org changes we've had in the last 5 years. It looks every time that a re-org is going to save the day. This time we will become OFSE under the helm of services. Two business units that have very little in common... — read more
