Thread regarding Baker Hughes layoffs

Bridge of Don

Passed Baker today, was amazed by how empty the car park was, either there have been hundreds of pay offs or everyone has started jogging to work !!

Industry has been going down for years, sure, but you cannot deny the toxic environment at the workplace. When you see puppet managers propped up to lead areas they’re unfamiliar with you can’t help but notice the decay is within. Top leaders - at the VP level - can’t seem to see past the BS the functional leaders feed them.

The company’s top brass is solely interested in the “dashboards” and couldn’t care less about the REAL day to day issues threatening the company. The company is WAAAY too management heavy and the independent companies have been and will continue eating their lunch.

Mom and pops will continue to emerge and annihilate the company in the long run little by little.

Industry was on a downturn even before covid.. guys saying nonsense about problems for years and years .. in my day etc .. get a grip.. unfortunately we are all in this boat together.. just get on with it .. it is what it is nobody to blame.. just hope for better days

Aberdeen office has been a shambles last 15-20 yrs. that was the problem with Baker One. people were put in positions they didn't know anything about so ended up losing contracts and f-up everything. thats why the Celle bit plant closed. the business was there but we just didn't get enough of it because of incompetence and not making an effort. but everything is covered up so who cares

Did consider it may be office workers working at home but the workshop car park behind the garage was not busy either, maybe assembling packers at home.
