Seems like they’ve all had layoffs we have another warn notice for Takeda in MA and there will be layoffs (exec team calling it “the efficiency program” aka layoffs) for the next two years. We completed year 1 of a 3 year plan so I would avoid Takeda for now.

The "efficiency" initiative started several years ago, Prior to Dan the supply chain began condensing, Folks rapidly departed in droves because they were bored to tears, decisions had to follow a monolithic philosophy & approvals/decisions were reviewed/undermined from the VP level down to the Manager.

What departments were hit?

R&D was hit just over a year after IT "leadership" pushed a bunch of folks out...hate to hear it then,and hate hearing this now

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
