Remember that it’s nothing personal if they let you go. Medtronic was here before you and it will be here after you, unless we merge with Home Depot to form a freak baby birthed from unchecked capitalism. The point is, the corporate machine doesn’t care about any of us. Good employees and bad employees alike get chewed up and sp-t out. You are worth more than whatever identity you have in this job.
Good luck.
@ac people in robotics have Business Update meetings for tomorrow
@ax maybe related to sunsetting the mechanical heart valve portfolio?
@bz later this week. Layoffs are already happening though
No announcement today?
@b2 not new news. Some changes were announced in February.
@b1 structural heart and aortic. I heard the same.
@ax what is SH&A?
I heard there will be a major restructuring in SH&A this week
Good luck everyone! If I could take the bullet for any of you I would!
Curious as to where people/team are being RIF'd this week. Let us know when it starts - when you hear of anyone. Not that we can do anything about, but we might be able to brace ourselves and then exhale if we are passed over somehow.
Try to remember your career is the sum of your skills, your character, and your curiosity. A layoff is just a change in venue, not a loss of yourself or who you are.
