This is what is wrong with corporate America. The t–ds float to the top of the organization.

Let's cut to the chase - when will the assets be sold so management can have one final big pay day?

16 or so people were laid off in Alva today, may 29th. Pumpers, Foremen and superintendents

Sr Drilling Engineering position posted this morning on the SD career website.

Good to see Bennett and Griffin out. They didn't add to SD, but were over-paid goof-balls. Time will tell is SD will survive the long haul. Even with the current lay-offs, additional cuts could happen. I see a very trim future for us. Much trimmer!

James has done a horrible job managing SD. Glad I do not work for that sh--ty company.

Can anyone on the inside confirm? It sounds like a blood bath.

Carl Icahn to acquire Bonanza Creek, which will then in turn acquire Sandridge Energy - redefining the term Hostile Takeover.

“Restructure”...mid to late February!

Management meeting held last week to inform about significant upcoming spring layoffs. Good luck all.

Just gave execs a little longer to weave their golden parachutes.

Just found out there is going to be a 25% cut in the OKC corporate office.

Mgmt just confirmed. Layoffs before Thanksgiving.

Layoffs have started in the corporate office! Managers have already been fired. Good luck.

Sandridge layoffs started wednesday, can personally confirm

I'm hearing rumors of field and corporate layoffs Wednesday 11/2/16.

No wonder the company is going under? Does anyone know people who do drugs that still work there?

So bankruptcy by June?

I hate to see people lose their jobs, but this fracking madness has got to stop. Let's move to clean, renewable energy like wind and solar that is already competitive with fossil fuels, makes America independent of terrorists, and provides good... — read more

That whole, "oh it's so easy to file unemployment now - it's online!" is proving to be BS. First of all, the site claims to work only with IE versions 4 - 9. Keep in mind, there are 3 newer versions of IE, and if you have a new PC that runs Windows... — read more

Sandridge stated that they would reimburse for all of Cobra for 3 months. If we pay for Cobra, and then Sandridge files for bankruptcy; I assume we get nothing? Any thoughts. Could put me out 3.5k.

Some of the Lariat Employees received their weekly pay of $840 (40 X $21 hourly wage), plus insurance for up to 2 months, unless they found a different job in that period. They made decent money over the last 4 years because they worked 60-70 hour... — read more
