Contingent workers let go couple weeks ago. Can't bode well.

Apparently contingent workforce in Midland engineering group were let go. Can anyone confirm?

Seems it's time to layoff!!

Will there be any Dow Chemical layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

I just thought I’d talk about DOW and its current layoff situation. As big as a corporation as DOW is I really thought they would have a more tasteful manner of laying people off, as I got my notice yesterday. Your leader schedules a 1 on 1 meeting... — read more 

What's your prediction as it relates to the possiblity of Dow Chemical layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

We are falling behind. Inflation is eating into wages. We need pay bumps soon. By the way, they will start with layoffs soon. Just my feeling, but you never know.

Don't rely on what you are told will be your job during your interview. I went in expecting one thing and I was greeted with something completely different. I could deal with being given additional responsibilities, but I was expected to do things I... — read more

This is a master thread about Dow Chemical Layoffs in 2019?

All should be done by mid December. I am hearing that some can spill into 2019.

Nothing on this, huh?

Not involved at Dow but wondering how all the layoffs will affect property values in Midland. More to come?

Management at Dow is among the worst I've ever had the (dis)pleasure of working for. They think that the best approach to running a company is through fear. Instead of encouraging people to do their best work they rely on threats and what pretty much... — read more
