now that the big layoffs are over has the engineers name the facility are there still a few leftovers there from Bowen Tools???

Reliable source. Said next month. Terrible qrt. Plus losing contracts. All plants will have at least 15 percent reduction.

So I got to thinking, why would anyone want to work hourly for NOV? Hourly: No bonus, no OT for the most part, No raises in a few years, 3 or so days of sick time a year? Salary: Bonus but only for managers?, unlimited sick time, they too haven't had... — read more
