Thread regarding Baker Hughes layoffs

GE CEO said : "cyclicality and commodity nature of the business" at Baker Hughes as a significant problem, GE is looking at exit options.

They haven't seen that before ???

Obviously, oil and gas business is volatile and cyclical you don't need to be a VP to understand that.

only took GE 3 months to see that BH are losers. Time to kick them on the scrap heap where they belong.

Too much blame being put on BHI here. GE is responsible for all of this.

also that marketing campaign was considerably a lot less money that you would think. Most was handled in house... and all by GE. Probably cost a bonus from a of C level executive.

To be honest, Ive dealt with a lot of GE Oil and Gas since the merger... I have not met a single one who is worth their title. I don't work with actual product lines, or in the field. MUCH of everything that has gone through has been GE's doing with very little input if any from the BHI side.

All I have witnessed is, BHI with their sh-- together and GE still floundering to keep up.

This would be a typical GE move, sell low. Why would you sell your oil and gas entity when it you know its bottomed out and will rise.

GE is a total cluster f---.

I see two possible scenarios unfolding:

1- GE begins selling their shares which will push stock price much lower

2- Chinese buy GE's majority position

Both s---.

If we look back a lot of money were spend on marketing campaign “ a line has been drawn“ , change the logo, everybody photos with BHGE frame smiley face.Unbelievable, to heard “ commodity nature of BHI business as a significant problem”.

Will be interesting who are BHI-GE advisers/consultants that haven't seen this disaster coming.

Looks like more instability for both companies and not very happy shareholders.

Already BHI has more that 3 years since is FOR SALE, we had Halliburton first, then GE, who is next .... ???
