Topics regarding layoffs at Weatherford International Ltd.

Wireline and the GPL Group

Can someone explain to the world what it is exactly that this group does? Covid has just allowed these plugs to sit around and collect pay checks. Let’s hope previous post about Halliburton is true.

Has it worked?

Before I left a few years ago, Weatherford was trying to cut its way to profitability. Has it worked yet?

Wireline, its a done deal....

Welcome to Halliburton. It will be really interesting to see how the Globe VP and Managers fair. Most of them have been hiding / working in their home countries opposed to Houston, collecting big fat pay checks. RH is just running a friends and... — read more 

I'm happy for those who left

I wish I took the opportunity to leave when it presented itself a little over a year ago. But I was an id--t. It was the height of the pandemic and I didn't want to risk losing a sure thing for what might turn out to be a temporary job. I can't... — read more 

Webster Madole leaving.

Heard that today. Good riddance. Treats people like cr-p and is never happy. Incompetent nincompoop.

Dear Girish…..

In the past 5-10 years we as the core have seen several leaders in the C-suite come and go. Each having their own sl--t on the future of our organization and bring in their own team. This is a understandable practise, it’s about trust and one must... — read more 

Global Business Product Line

This group HAS to be restructured. Whether it be Integrated Projects, DS, WC, WL, etc they all are redundant and have ivory tower arrogance. During Covid it has got so ridiculous. Barking orders from Houston and all playing the cover you a-s... — read more 

Increasing incompetence?

I have friends who work in other companies in this industry and when we talk about the atmosphere in general, they also have remarks that it is amazing how much incompetence has taken hold in their companies as well. Is there any logical... — read more 

Managers who don't know how to manage

Do you know how you can tell that WFT has cr---y managers? Because the only way they know how to manage is through fear. 'Let's keep everybody in line by constantly threatening them with losing their jobs (through firings or layoffs, it doesn't... — read more 

Any updates on corod Edmonton...

Heard they rehired few they let go before... Some have bailed once they found something better. But re hiring family members again.

Don’t Expect An Exit Interview When You Quit

Recently I quit here at Weatherford and sure, I had an exit interview. It was conducted via Teams with HR, but all they said was sign here, here, Cobra, list of phone numbers and that’s it. Not one question was asked about the employee’s experience... — read more

How would you rate your career here?

I’m satisfied, but I think I could have achieved a lot more in a company where favoritism is not as big a problem as it is here. I’ve always loved just my job but I didn't want to play games to be among someone’s favorites to achieve all my... — read more 

Do nothing extra?

Ever since I started working here, I have always done a lot more than is in my job description. That has never changed. Some people say they refuse to do anything that goes beyond the scope of their job, however, I am in such a situation that I... — read more 

I'm almost afraid to ask

How has morale been lately at WFT? I left about a year before the pandemic hit in big part to escape what the company had done to its employees. It felt like everybody was depressed all the time. I've been hoping that things have improved since then... — read more

1st Quarter Loss

You can put al the lipstick you want on a pig...but it is still a pig.

Not what it used to be

For those of us still hanging on by a thread, we are constantly micromanaged and consistently told we need to prove our value to the company. For what.

Those who are rehired

I don’t know what percentage of those laid off are rehired, but I guess it’s very small. I am interested in those who agreed to be rehired, how much worse conditions did they agree to? From what I heard, they offered much worse conditions. It's awful... — read more 

Karma will hit them hard...

I can tell you that we're sick of working with broken equipment, sick of all the initiatives, sick of all the broken promises, sick of looking at was once a good company run into the ground by incompetent management, so we'll ride it out for a while... — read more 

They value neither good people nor good ideas

No matter how invested some people are in their work and this company, professional and talented, one has to come to terms with the fact that good ideas are generally not welcome here. I know a lot of people who had great ideas that weren’t valued... — read more 

Would you agree to a lower pay?

I have to celebrate this. It took me a long time to find a new job and I was hesitant to accept a job at a company that offered me a slightly lower pay, but in the end I accepted because I think working conditions are generally much better than here... — read more 

How much longer

How much longer are they going to let WM ruin manufacturing sites? This guy and his Cameron crew of clowns is ridiculous. When will our new VP dump him for someone from GE
