I don't know about the shareholders,  but the employees should be happy. Most of the folks I know hated working for BH and left for Haliburton. Much more employee oriented.

Not surprising, sometimes struggling organizations struggle as much from internal issues as external/financial ones.  Halliburton will have to cut the deadwood in management that have been mucking things up.
