Hi all! Recently saw another round of layoffs at BMS, and at the same time I see tons of BMS job postings on LinkedIn.
Has anyone any insights on this? What are the chances for a new BMS hire to be hit by these layoffs (given the past one year or so, I may expect new layoff rounds in the future)?

Ton of roles were eliminated and ppl laid off. Those positions were now reposted at a lower level. Not sure likely hood of being laid as a new hire. It’s been done in commercial before so anything is possible.
