The problem with this company is they keep trying the same thing, layoff the actual workers and keep existing management, but expect a different outcome. The definition of crazy.

It is the other way around KKR bought BMC. KKR has deep pockets they own many companies.

I heard through the grape vine it wasn’t just fishing, but the whole drilling tools product line (fishing, wellhead, rentals, etc)
