Laid off December 2015 after 38 years of service. It was time to retire anyway. It was a great life learning experience.

Another day at the chopping block.

If you write about the CEO not caring or giving a F#%K about North America they remove your post. Long Live Olivier!!!!

Does anyone know if they are shutting down california?

In a critical time such as this, it becomes obvious if the management of any company has what it takes to lead the company through the crisis or if they are just incompetent and not capable of doing anything but cut jobs and hope for the best. .. — read more 

It looks like everybody got laid off that worked at at the WL CRE maintenance in OKC. I am heartbroken.

I know furloughs slash basically a pay reduction started 04/12 however has anyone heard an end date.

Question is anyone filing for the WARN act? There are very few laws that protect workers in the US, the WARN act is one of them. This requires a company to give 60 days notice before mass layoffs. I haven't heard a single employee that was... — read more 

Florence Ky getting chopped right now.

What's going on in Sugarland. I hope everybody rides through this pandemic smoothly. I am just praying for everybody.

Why a person who just received high performance rewards was let go last week? Because of approaching retire age?

One person I spoke with said that since she was on a visa she would not get furloughed! Absolutely infuriating! SLB hates bad public exposure. Any friendlies in the media that you know of that would help expose this?

Anybody know anything about Supply Chain Manager, Supplier Leaders, Expediters roles being cut?

How long does it take to receive the severance pay? It has been close to a month since I signed the package. 2 pay periods passed and nothing. Can’t get on the phone with anyone to ask that question.

So many "managers" are sitting in Houston. Traveling all over the world. Making expenses. They are making 100k +. Get rid of the fat.

Just asking. I have to pay the bills.

Oil is like any business. An oil company cannot control the price. If lightbulbs shot up to $100 a light bulb, light bulb companies would be hiring tens of thousands. If light bulbs go down to 5 cents a light bulb, these people are laid off and... — read more 

and why we have so many Venezuelan in duplicate roles with nothing to do! is Venezuelan glued to this company to sink it ?

The times are ripe, (actually overripe, I would even say rotting already...) to jump off the sad shadow of this former glorious company and move to something else.... The question is where to find the equivalent environment to what thriving oil... — read more 

Time to get back to basics and develop local talent instead of bringing these expensive expats to pontificate their “been there, done that”. SLB can’t afford them, not now not next year!

The virus is the latest blue excuse. Oil price and shares have been heading down for nearly 5years in spite of Schlumberger's planners believing that the Land O'Riches was approaching. How did they miss the obvious? Worse than abysmal. So much... — read more

I'm genuinely worried.

I worked for 3 large technology companies with a much higher market cap than SLB, before joining SLB, For the first time, I found so many dumb PhDs counting days just for their retirement. HR is a big joke. many of their spouses work in other areas... — read more 

Unfortunately 5 employees were layed off on LAN the last friday. The order is simple, last in-first out due low compensation costs for the company. Good luck to everybody. We'll have another opportunity in the future in O&G industry or any other... — read more 

Without oilfield services, production will stall and decline within months. The situation is dire for mainstream independent oilfield services companies, not only in US shale, where Schlumberger, Halliburton or National Oilwell Varco are cutting... — read more 

Why does SLB still have offices in Calgary and Denver? There is no work anywhere near either office at least combine them and get rid of one lease. Oh wait we will just close operations in district that have a chance to produce revenue. That make a... — read more 

any layoffs coming

I was transferred to Cambridge about a year ago and nobody is saying anything to me on potential layoff / furlough due to this crisis but I feel that is coming. Please share your thoughts or what you know.

Now you have to pay to get work if smart assess haven't built their assets.

During PayPaal days: Schlumberger loved to get rid of hard working people and save jobs of do-nothing managers. Same this time as well?

$20bn loss in 6 months..... The results for this current quarter will be just as terrible as very little is happening in the field and even less in manufacturing and oil has hit sub $18. Wake up and smell the coffee. The good thing about this... — read more
