CB&I acquires The Shaw Group of Baton Rouge

One of Louisiana's few Fortune 500 companies is going away.  The Shaw group out of Baton Rouge was aquired by the Dutch company CB&I.  CB&I, formerly known as Chicago Bridge & Iron, has it's U S operations based out of Houston, meaning dozens, if not hundreds of high paying, 6 figure salaried employees will be gone.  At least from Baton Rouge.
