Baker need to sort this out , we have now lost 8 members of staff the last 3 months in our office alone in Aberdeen all with over 15 years experience each due to being treated like utter sxxt by management and the company.
We then replace them with graduates or inexperienced staff and wonder why we have no work.
Our department was 22 strong 5 years ago now we have 5 and 3 have less than 5 years experience it's a joke what's happening.
Are all the other offices this bad or just Aberdeen ?

Sure, there are a lot of new tech savvy young people in this company, but a lot of ones I see cannot carry on much of a conversation with anyone, much less a customer, and don't know how to forge relationships with customers. They know how to use an Iphone but thats not enough. They also don't seem well-schooled in some of the basics of the petroleum industry.
