OTOY, the visual effects company that was hired to do work on the film, was reportedly in way over their heads with the project, and had to deal with a generally-unresponsive and erratic Josh Trank, who requested that The Thing's appearance and size shift between certain shots. A number of visual effects sequences--such as the scene where The Thing fights off insurgents in the Middle East--were apparently cut due to Fox not funding the small company enough to make them work. Ironically, the reason they hired OTOY was so that they could save on money; reliance on the company and the cost of reshoots ultimately made the whole affair even more expensive.
