Do you have any further insight into the situation there?

126 people just out of a job. Lucky for them the job market is good down here.

The entire management (in BR) team was told to move to the Woodlands or be out of a job.

i heard they were moving the entire building staff from the Essen office to texas, to make room for more project managers/engineers for the upcoming boom in the area

They must be operating at a loss if they're laying that many people off considering how much work they have. They must have some serious profitability issues. Now I'm glad they never wanted to hire me.

Are they laying these guys off or moving them to another site?

The Addis ones are being laid off. I'm not sure whether the office employees in the building off Essen are being laid off or moved

I think you are incorrect sir. If I remember the article correctly it was overhead stuff like hr and marketing.

If you are able to move, that would be a huge upgrade to move to The Woodlands.

CB&I's offices are right on Lake Woodlands. Very nice area.

They might have 5 employees that could afford it.

ETA:

I think that's still pushing it.
