Thread regarding Weatherford International Ltd. layoffs

Layoffs logic?

I have a friend who worked at Scott and I am very disappointed that he was fired. Of course, everyone thinks that they should not have been fired, but rather someone else, but chances are that there was no logic behind it and that much better employees were fired than the ones that stayed. This company seems to be becoming a haven for mediocrity, unfortunately.

Employees are ranked by skill, competency and then vetted by HR. Scott plant’s employees are paying for two years of terrible delivery to customers. Now management is outsourcing as much as they can. First of many reductions for team. Get out while you can

The logic is a mix of accounting choice and who the supervisor likes. 60/40 weighted by my best guess.

Logic? Pahahaha. There is about as much logic into the choice of layoff as a 2 year old coloring. Nothing but scribble scratch.

Let good employees go and keep some some of the worst. Aka the brown noses!

They laid off some very good employees and kept some terrible ones. Such a sad place to work. Had so much more potential. Just terrible

They do their layoff/firing by who makes the most money.

Being fired or laid off is a gift. Not an end but a beginning

idk if he was fired or laid off. but they are completely different things. Most companies don't give severance pay because it's not mandatory in the US. Weatherford did give "something" to those laid off. Also from what I saw they did keep "most" of the best employees there. except for that awful QC manager
