Halliburton (Capt. Smith) has ordered full steam ahead with the divestitures with many more to come. Only a handful of jobs (lifeboats) available. This ship will hit the iceberg and founder. Will you be able to survive?

Just curious, if Hal is so bad, why are folks waiting to see if they survive each round of cuts rather than taking control and jumping off the rotting ship on their own. I have reasons of my own for holding out, what are yours?

Have heard some talks but want to be sure its coming @ NorthBelt.

Is there anyone left to cut from management or the field? What's the workload like? How bad can it be?Thought they were hiring OA2s and mechanics but the CEO is announcing cuts. Will they hit the north east?

That's MY estimate

Do you know where I can find this? I was laid off in 2015 and will need to obtain my W2.

After this mornings' earning call. It is likely to see more layoffs soon. With Sperry being divested are they immune from layoffs or does Halliburton still have rule over this PSL ?
