I don't even care if that makes me sound like an as----e, but I pray for layoffs and I pray they include me. I'm done with this place.
Do you think we'll have layoffs soon?
What's your opinion?
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

That's GeoSoftware gone, then...
So, GeoSoftware has officially gone now. Here's the bookies' odds for what's next... North Sea Data Library - Evens Sercel 2-1 Galileo - 7-2 All Data Library - 4-1
how much time does CGG have?
CGG is still making quarterly losses, the debt pile is enormous and the credit line is being further reduced by each loss. With the majors culling oil and gas spend and no sign of a major pickup, is it over for CGG?
Ideal ratio of managers to workers?
This seems to me to be a company for managers. My opinion is that this situation is unsustainable because the company will soon have more managers than employees. More and more people are leaving, but managers are staying. It seems to me that CGG... — read more
Nothing much left
So, GeoSoftware is now sold. That leaves about 3,000 out of what was recently a company of 12,000 - and that still includes Sercel! It's a bit like the knight in Monty Python that thinks he can keep fighting when all his limbs have been chopped off!... — read more
Business lines for sale

9/80
What's the work schedule at cgg? Do they offer 9/80 schedule?
This is a much bigger problem
CGG is carrying legacy debt from the days when they delivered the full suite of seismic services and products. I recall many years when one business bailed out another (Sercel and land) to deliver OK results. They still carry the debt but now only... — read more
How the he-l???
We are not making any money despite the data processing being done. We have a massive amount of debt which is not going down. We continue to spend money we do not have. HOW ARE WE STILL IN BUSINESS?

Green careers?
Has anyone tried transitioning their career to renewables? I’m thinking about making a career change and I wonder how sensible that move would be. I still do not have a good insight into the opportunities and job offers in this sector. I am... — read more
Reasons you are still at CGG?
CGG is my former workplace, I left recently before they could fire or lay me off. I couldn’t take it anymore because suddenly there was no reason for me to stay. The stock price speaks volumes about the state of the company. I just wonder, why do... — read more
CGG pledges carbon neutrality by 2050
I would have thought that pledging profitablilty by 2050 would be the first step. The optimism that they will still be around in 2050 is grounds for hope. Presumably by relocating to Shanghai. PS Polarcus defaulting: thoughts on that?
Stock price from $2000 to $0.51 garbage stock
CGG's stock price from $2000 in 2008 to $0.51 now. It is a garbage stock
What’s happening with the multi-physics group sale?
It was announced back in the beginning of August that multi-physics would be sold off to Xcalibur group, since then we’ve heard nothing. Is it still happening?
