Another round of cuts expected tomorrow. All signs and behavior by HR indicates as much.

I got the second sack in 2014. Good luck to all. Look of a new gig and try to get the best package that you can. I will never go back to BHI.

Insider knowledge, all BHI Aberdeen is lined up to go in a handful of months. Get out now while you still have some pride and dignity. Dark dark days ahead, if you think Baker have any loyalty to their hard working staff think again. They'll keep the... — read more 

Who cares about the dedicated employees whose lives and families are flipped upside down? It's all a bunch of sh!t! The executives get the gold mine, the worker bees get the shaft!

Ok folks remember this, If you don't like what's happened with this deal, quit your belly akin and get another job. Otherwise be the best employee you can! Life brings changes and crying over this won't make it better. Just my 2 cents!

The back stabbing, lies, favoritism, neglect, red tape and bureaucracy got old real fast. Every day has been grin & bear to a great extent.

We have nothing to loose now. They got what they wanted and now the layoffs will speed up. They don't give a damn about the average worker loosing their jobs. So let's slow down and take a vacation or sick next week.

Is it limited to just pressure pumping or are the other departments / divisions clouded with the delusions of management? Delusional in thinking we are not on borrowed time. The attitude here would be funny if it weren't so pitiful. We lost. The game... — read more
