This site is for Layoff Information.
This is not for job hunting, stupid comments and weight issues. Let's keep this informative so we will all know what is happening with NOV. Good information is hard to come by concerning the future of all of us that work at NOV.
Dear Mr. Chairman of the Board: I can revitalize any Oil&Gas company using the strategy applied at SLB, GEOG, BHI, TXN, USAF, WFT, UNBC
I built the morale of Afghanistan and Iraq bound engineers of the active duty United States Air Force at the height of the wars. I advanced the technological know-how while boosting students' morale at University of Northern British Columbia. Top... — read more
Mr. Chairman of the Board: Please hire me to revitalize the NOV spirit. I gained bottom-up strategy at SLB, NOV, GEOG, BHI, TXN, USAF, WFT, etc.
I can turn around NOV while maintaining the status quo. No need to hire, fire, and rehire cycles. I'm no burney sanders of oil & gas either. All my experience is pretty recent

It's not easy to jump the boat when you have a commitment to your employer
And your future employer will see you as a proven good weather friend. Plus you left about $20,000 on avg of layoff benefits on the table. Getting laid off has its virtues. Sincerely, LinkedIn.com/in/ayhussain
Bonuses
Are they still giving bonuses? I think that is unfair if so. We are on a pay freeze. We are the ones that get our bosses the bonuses. The insurance is a lot more expensive for myself, wife, and kids....nearly double.
Eeeeeeeeeek oil price is getting lower its $43.79 bbl
We about to hit a huge slope. Business will be much slower this entire quarter and next. Glad I jumped ship before all the layoffs. I saw it coming.

Read that book when I got laid off in '01. It implies if you work like a hardworking mouse you'll be better off than a slower mouse in 30 years
What a joke to be the bestseller to fool American public. Maybe it made sense back then, not now. Sincerely, LinkedIn.com/in/ayhussain

Y'all need some zen & detox

Sugar land layoffs the sad truth...
This past Thursday 11-5-15 NOV sugar land terminated some of its employees. It was a sad situation to see long term employees being brought to the I.E. Conference room one by one packages were given out and unemployed was granted but it seems as... — read more
PCG layoffs
Can anyone tell me please who got laid off today? I do not want to hear it as a demoralizing comment from the vultures stalking me in the break area. Is this how this company treats interns?
PCG
I just want to say that I love working here.
Has anyone figured it out why it fails sometimes?
