Why so many SLB IT Managers & Senior developers like me are assigned new role in Cameron IT? How is Cameron IT? Any insight please?

2009 layoff was much more transparent and in a respectful manner. Gould Schlumberger was much better than Kids-gaard Schlumberger

How much money is Schlumberger writing off in Venezeula? Is it coming out of PK $20 million paycheck?
