Thread regarding Weatherford International Ltd. layoffs

They sure didn't say a word about this while I was getting hired

I started with Weatherford 5 months ago at the Scott location. They keep telling us that we have tons of work and they are still needing more machinist. They have us working weekends. The only thing i see is that the material companies arent supplying us like before. Guess they are worried they wont get paid!! I thinking ill stick around for a little while longer. But if i wouldve known about all of this i wouldve never took the job. They sure didnt say a word about this while i was getting hired. But thats on me to do the research before.

I work at Weatherford bit longer then @ZipqzjJ-1jcw , bu I was basicaly faced with the same situation.

Unfortunately the ones that can make a change are the ones being let go!

Hang in there Mr SCOTT location employee. The management there at Scott is turning that place around but you must be onboard with it otherwise you will be out like a LA fastball.

I bet they didn’t tell you either at the interview that what you enter Weatherford as is what you will remain as for all your working life. No promotion, no chances for getting up the ladder, no pay raises for years, no training. Welcome to Weatherford.

The old last in first out policy, where new hires get taken on so they can’ be sacrificed as soon as layoffs are looming, unless you’re related to some manager and then some guy who has 30 years in will get the boot instead. Friendo you’re at the beginning of a long learning curve as far as Weatherford is concerned, and it’s all downhill from here.
