Technip will start its assimilation on us today. Good luck all

I wish Technip would just come in and get rid of all of us. This whole company is crap. Thankfully I just put in my two weeks, leaving oil and gas forever. I will always look back on my time with FMC with hatred and frustration, just one empty... — read more 

So many posts about lay offs was that it till next year?

Subsea services will be reducing headcount around 10% or so in the following departments: quality, finance, planning, HR/support, HSE, IT, communications, procurement, logistics and supply chain. Good luck everyone and God bless.

Lay-offs started in Erie again, 4 in the IT department so far.

Flex cell for gears road manufacturing set to be announced next week. Good luck to all.

Just heard we lost some of our local IT here in Stephenville!

Extra security and individuals throughout the parking garage at Gen Park. Last time this happened we lost a bunch of workers

So this is all very US-centred (or ... US-centered ...!), but what do people have to say about the bases in Scotland? I imagine at least some people from Scotland are lurking here and saying nothing. The whole office in Glasgow (or Bellshill -... — read more

Surface dissolving positions and firing entire groups as of yesterday AM. They told us we had to move to Houston to retain our positions and what happens two weeks after selling homes and buying new ones in TX? We don't need you now, sorry about all... — read more

Does anyone know for sure if there will be many more layoffs within the subsea services western region? If so, will this consist of shop personnel as well?

Made it to September! What next? Everyone is just waiting for the next shoe to drop. No one will made a decision because it might be wrong, soooooo nothing is being done!

Seems like 80's. Have to wonder if oil will ever come back.

FMC as we knew it is methodically being chopped to pieces by the French butchers! It's over people, our stock will end up less than $20 and we will be out of jobs!! LIFE IS GOOD!!!!

Chokes is being dissolved... That was a given... Not surprisingly as every manager and Product manager that has gone in to manage it has done nothing and thought they were going to save the world ...

So today the WIS group within Subsea Services had some people sent home.

Anyone actually watch the "Company update" video from Bubba today? Heard from someone in Communications that each one of those videos costs about $10k EACH because they are professionally done! Gremp is a much better and more believable speaker... — read more
