The cuts will not be extremely minimal, they will be deep cuts and felt across the company. 21,000 more in the 2nd quarter in addition to the 15,000 that have already cut in the 1st quarter. Can anybody confirm if these numbers are true or not?... —  read more 

In some of the previous posts people said that they moved on and found jobs not in O&G. I saw on LinkedIn that some ex-SLB guy started a job with Spacex. Awesome! Would you guys share your ideas on where to go next? Those people, who found new... —  read more 

21000 x 48575 is approximately $1.02 billion. This shows the average level at which Schlumberger made cuts this season

I just want to come back and say that moving on from SLB and finding a new career choice has been the biggest weight off my shoulders. I worked for SLB for 5 years and in April got let go. I was upset at first but bounced back quickly and just found... —  read more

The filings today clearly stated this 21k was previous cuts and that the impairments would most been seen in Q3. We are cutting off a high of 105k people. Now that isn't to say there won't be MORE cuts but this is shoddy reporting by HOU reporters... —  read more 

Not many of us at Rankin left...

Bloomberg is reporting Schlumberger staff shrinkage by 21000. Apparently, quarter revenues are horrendous, so 21k has to go. Didn't find this entirely surprising. I expected more.

Could it come back again?

Over 200 finance employees in Houston Hub are been laid off if no alternative job is found in the next 3 months. All LAM finance positions with few exceptions are moving to Bogota to include NAO (NAM and LAM). On the list is also the NAM and LAM... —  read more 

Is it legal to release employees and turn around and make them an offer to come back as a contractor (less pay and no benefits)? Asking for a friend. This may or may not be happening in OneStim (hypothetically ;))

The new organization structure was supposed to be announced end of June and it was post poned to mid July... More heads will roll...

What is it with these now laid off SLB employees thanking SLB on LinkedIn for a wonderful experience while being employed with Big Blue, but kicked you to the door like a pyscho Tinder date after they got their rocks off? I get that posting a post... —  read more 

As if getting laid off wasn't cost saving enough, now they wanna charge me service fee's for having my money in the 401k. Glad I'm done with them. Lol

Schlumberger should not treat employees the way they do. Period.

Happy 4th of July ! Hope our job can be saved!

SLB fills pages and pages with messages related to cost reduction but its actions reveal a different reality. How in the world a former product champion based in UK is kept as an expat Data Lab Manager? Is this job so unique and difficult that a UK... —  read more 

How badly has Australia NZ been hit with layoffs? I know they have slashed and burned elsewhere but is there anyone left to turn off the lights? NZ was a basket case already so they may just shut the whole operation down from industry... —  read more

Probably similar to other lawsuits in the past that SLB has had to deal with. Will this add to the already dismal outlook for this oilfield service company? Or is it just another bump in the... —  read more 

My good old American colleagues were laid off this April-March or offered early retirement packages. My visa holders colleagues kept their jobs: Brazil, Venezuela, UK. These guys are good, don't get me wrong, but why am I jobless and receiving... —  read more 

Hang on FMPC. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride today.

Why people on L visas are being saved and Americans are loosing their jobs? Send all these people back home... Schlumberger has shown zero commitment with America...

SLB may stay primarily in Permian only for NAL. All other divisions will be soft closed or closed all together. Focus will be Middle East, Offshore, SEA, EAF, and North Sea. They are dumping massive real estate at super low prices they have been... —  read more 

Heard rumours that men are being targeted more for layoffs so that SCHLUMBERGER can show an increase in percentage of female employees from previous year

Remember this is a layoff website and will be good to know any recent mass layoffs or big name layoffs. Count of oil rigs has hit bottom this week so will be interesting to see how industry reacts to this

What kind of severance are you getting? I got 13 weeks of pay

Folks. Most of us have been here before. Many of us have been through more than one round of redundancies over the years. The market is extremely tough and will remain so for probably the next 3 year’s minimum.im no fan of slb or their tactics with... —  read more 

In my time I had 1 for every promotion and made it up to geomarket manager. A total of 6 and I was in the USA I hear ME region was much more aggressive and the numbers were much higher. Thankfully I never worked there

So the team at Cameron Corporate, the ones that are purely expenses and bring almost no value to the business... Why are they being shielded from all this? Their industry 4.0 project is a joke, and they even have a few incompetent managers there who... —  read more 

SLB must apply a management style that respects the culture of the area in which they operate. Send a French 30 year old to the US who only has management experience in Africa to manage 20+ year US employees? Or visa versa. Who in their right mind... —  read more 

Heard they are moving part of product to Italy and the other to Sugarland, if not stopping production altogether.

In new organization can schlumberger really introspect and challenge why we need so many managers and team leaders

For a company that wants to promote change and innovation, the leadership videos (all but 1), demonstrate the contrary. We can modify the structure as many times as we want but when the people that are supposed to roll it out, look so dull... —  read more 

Whose gonna do the laying off now? Looks like they found someone because it’s still happening.
