@1pw yes things that should take a day or two typically resolve after a few weeks or months, it's terrible
@1pv is the Waters outsourced group as awful as the BD one? It is such a nightmare trying to deal with them when we have issues. Need to escalate upwards almost everytime. Not sure how much it's saving when it's double the work.......
@1ps not sure what the percentage is but somewhere around 200 jobs at least (almost all of web IT is GCC/India)
I'm curious how much of IT at Waters is already outsourced? BD outsourced essentially all of their IT way before the merger, except for maybe one or two US employees at a site to deal with whatever the offshore group can't (which is often a lot - the offshore group is unsurprisingly horrendously incompetent). Does Waters already do the same?
@1nm he would have if it was going to sh-t.trump don't visit failing golf courses.
Receipts are all that matter.these guys are not interested in pointless visits.
@1jy Jewel to the crown that our friend Udit had never once visited.
@fd most back office (accounting, finance) from BD will go to Milford or outsourced (it) this year. In the near term expect Ops to have a close look at - what can be cut will be.
Long term expect to hear new ex-US and China mfg site will mfg one then more lines of flow cytometers and reagents in the coming years. Expect San Jose one of the most expensive places to do business in the world to be a shell of what it used to be in 5-10 years.
Wexford is the jewel in the crown.no one going anywhere,sit back and enjoy.
@117 They starting to leave the sinking ship. #1 bluffer gone from WX today.
@x6 no WARN notice needed?
Wexford soon. Beware
@ff 111 laid off employees/month for the next 15 quarters.
am currently automating about a dozen jobs into a single AI agent, good luck everyone
This feels so depressing!
And it’s gets even better by Q4 when AI kicks in, Ai works 24/7, no breaks, no,pay increases, our new team player will be a non stop super star
More mental anguish for the USA employees, only 15 more quarters to go!
A synergy valued at over $300 million roughly equals the elimination of 5,000 jobs.
😭
Whenever leadership acquires new companies, Waters employees are typically the ones laid off. If they acquire overseas companies, they tend to fire American workers. I’m tired of this nonsense.
Mr. Batra indicated there will be $300+M synergy savings thru 2030, that’s a whole lot of downsizing!
Correct. Also plant consolidation and shutdown.
Synergy=layoff
Where do you think you the “synergies” are coming from?
Not again!
