Decent severance?
Can we still expect a decent severance? After everything that has happened, I no longer have much hope that the severance will be adequate.
Baker can afford 2 billion stock buy back, but cannot afford you!
(www.reuters.com/business/energy/baker-hughes-buyback-shares-worth-2-billion-2021-07-30/) Buy back stock while laying people off and having negative net income. Great decision! Big three will become big two, I am waiting for the day to come. Sell... — read more
