How are those bonuses?

I believe in an effort to reduce costs they have now sold the offices to another company. Whilst the office space was always too large, despite grand plans from the management team, selling and reducing footprint certainly sounds like a desperate... — read more 

I was a part of NOV for 15 years. I made it up the management ladder. I loved what I did for many years. Until the internal split the company made in 2012 or 2013. An accountant was put over our business unit. That was just stupid. so was bringing... — read more

I propose that there is a mid management level cull throughout NOV. Managers at the top are clueless and ineffectual, always have been/always will be. The mid level have neither direction nor personality - we require these to get back a culture of... — read more

I was let go this morning after 11 years. From what I understand, they are looking at a major cuts across the board.

The hourly guys on the floor are barely getting wages above that at McDonalds. Whats with that.
