well somebody else will
In corporate offices - yesm. what a shame. Most not all of the englishmen I see in the SLB Houston offices feel they deserve special treatment and like people kissing thier buts. When I see that and often, my only feeling is to take them out to the parking lot and beat the shit out of them , but i cannot.
There won't be much employees on payroll, look at oil prices, so run away unless u kiss their asses. this is all they do all day long. go get some real job
Well good to lucky you in your negative little life......the company will grow stronger without people like
you on the payroll.........god help the next employer to take on someone so small minded and pathetic as you.....there are a lot of good people still working for the company and if they werent so great then why did you stay......good riddance to you......

OP - I think that, in 2014, there was somewhere around 48.7 billion reasons why your position is flawed
Like taking your finger out of that glass of water, no hole there when the finger is gone. HAL and BHI all play from same business model. Being #1, only because #2 screwed up today 2% mroe than they did. It is not about being good at someting, it is about being less totally inept. Plenty of third world people to drink the Kool-aid and tow the party line. Jackasses all!
I don't work for SLB anymore. I did not like my job but I'm proud that I worked for SLB even if they laid me off now. The are the best.
Yea, this is a pointless debate. There's nothing that will sway you SLB homers until SLB puts you out on the street. Wall Street likes layoffs and Kibsgaard is obviously more concerned with pleasing Wall Street than taking care of his employees or customers. He's making sure he still makes his $22M even if it means putting 9000 folks on the street. It's easy to wish bad things on SLB but there are still many good people who work there and it's not their fault their CEO is heartless and sucks.
Schlumberger's been growing and will continue to grow. The layoffs are a sign of strength, not a weakness. It's a well managed company that will continue to leads in the oil service space for long time. Now, it looks like you've crumbled already given your negative line of thinking. Let it go and move on, there is nothing you can do about it.
1 oilfield service company. It won't crumble w/o you or me.
Slb hopes you crumble too.
