HR Insider, your number reflects the total separations however Weatherford has hired over 2000 since start of 2015.
Can you share the net headcount reduction in future with your posts?

HR has nothing better to do. They really do not what people talking on here..Spelling, grammar who cares
Anonymous120799--haha, thanks for the proof reading tip. To correct your reply, you should have used "your correction" instead of "you're correction." "You're" is the contraction for "you are." Your is the possessive form of you, used as a modifier before a noun. Such as---"Your poor grammar is problematic when posting on a blog."
Anonymous120599 You're intelligence is noted and no doubt everyone is grateful for you're correction to Anonymous120445 comment. Top of the class award to you employment in proof reading beckons for you.
I don't know about your "maths" but the correct word is "bandied" not "banded." We need to be grammatically correct when bashing Weatherford.
A broken bankrupt company run by rotten incompetent managers, and sinking faster than the Titanic, with little hope of a rescue. Not even GE would be mad enough to buy WFT with it's present debt mountain. Thank you WFT for all the broken promises and dreams. Bleak future beckons us all.
So reading between the lines, another 10000 job losses before we reach the magical 40000 figure being banded around. So I make that 1 in every 5 of us who are left will lose our job this year. Very depressing news for everybody. Please correct me if my maths is wrong.
There are also the ones that some managers are just trying to build "false" cases against so they can be just let go if they decide to downsize further down the road without the need for notice or a severance package.
I think there was 65,000 employees before layoffs started, not 100% sure. If so based on these #s that Would Leave About 9,622 left To Go To Reach 40,000
Does anyone have the number of employees left to date keep hearing WFT looking to downsize to 40,000 are we close to that total?
A very good question. According to US Labor Law 1971, you are supposed to receive by letter a 4 week working notice period. It appears WFT are not complying with US Labor legislation. Hummmm
Why do some employees recieve a letter of lay off notice , while others just get layed off same day without notice?
Lay offs finished, you believe that email that lay offs finished. Not a chance
I read that as meaning 347 people have been given a 4 week lay off notice, that will take affect at the end of July, when they are removed from the payroll.
Even though an email said they were done with layoffs are you saying they continue to lay off? 347 more with notices meaning ??
15031 with another 347 with notice to drop out of WFT database by July 31st.
