Thread regarding CGG Veritas layoffs

Calgary hit again

The Calgary office was hit again this week. Some of the laid-off employees had decades of seniority.

With the exception of specialty divisions like Hampson-Russell, I don't think the Calgary office has many weeks left before it's shut down completely. It's so small now, there's little point to keeping it open.

Even if CGG survives this downturn it will be a decimated company, and likely never return to its once dominant position in the industry. The Fugro takeover carried out just before the downturn has crippled it permanently.

More layoffs a few days ago in Europe, a small site (sorry, cannot inform about the name of the CGG site).

Unfortunately, more layoff is coming after Q4 results.

It is too bad to see HR software is going down the drain with CGG. HR would have been in a better situation if they stayed as a separate company.

Agree. It's not ex-Fugro employees fault, but CGG management.
