the 6,000 job cuts will take years to implement, probably until 2028, reductions happening in phases and by department.
dpt heads are given budget cut targets, this translates into headcount cuts, and then negotiate internally on who to cut and when. notifications can be staggered, and different dpts are on different schedules for cuts...
early rounds will target experienced and highly compensated staff...
the potential later re-hiring at lower levels or on contracts.
some sites may be closed and infrastructure may be reducd.
commercial teams are suspected to be next to be hit, with a WARN notice filed for rahway (that is linked below) affecting 58 people in 11/2025 (as part of the first round).....
contractors are already being let go, nobody is surprised. some are not being renewed, also no surprise...
the reduction goal is ~8%, and attrition will account for some cuts, the weak job market means fewer voluntary dptrs.
comms from mgmt is bad bad...
