Halliburton Co. and Baker Hughes Inc. announced job cuts today, though the chief executives declined to say how many or where. That's just the way these big mergers work, and it's not as bad as you might think.
The way to make money merging two big companies like this is to combine operations and eliminate redundancies. And some workers will, to use a British idiom, find themselves made redundant. That's the headline for employees in Houston, where both companies have major operations.
If you're a logistician, an office manager or executive assistant at Halliburton or Baker Hughes, then you should be updating your LinkedIn account and resume. Page nine of a presentation released Monday shows that of the $2 billion in cuts the combined company expects to make, 31 percent will be in North American operations, 18 percent will be in administration and 9 percent in corporate.
If you're an engineer, scientist or field worker, you're probably OK for now.
They probably be announcing what divisions or what assets they will be selling and the employees will be sold too. And that's where the additional 3500 layoffs will come from.
