Thread regarding BD (Becton Dickinson & Co.) layoffs

You know what is BD2025? In absence of innovation, all TP knows to do is outsource, outsource, outsource. They have outsourced well over 1000 jobs so far to India last year, and there will be a lot more. There's no other savings, innovations, etc, and there's only one path left for TP that he knows - which is to outsource. Someone above said good conscience. You can't put that in the same sentence when you mentioned this guy

Get out while you can!

lol his raise is just a smidge higher than your 3%. What’s to belly ache about?

So, Corporate makes the decisions/mistakes which cause lay offs at the plants. The plants have to lay off employees (who had nothing to do with those decisions and mistakes made by corporate) and reduce production numbers because of those mistakes. The plants bonuses get cut to bare minimum because of the lack of production, but, all of Corporate gets their FULL bonuses plus larger raises than the plants?! So in a nutshell, Corporate makes the mistakes and has no repercussions and then they pass those repercussions on to the plants?! Tell me how this makes sense! How can a CEO, in good conscience, take a full bonus and raise knowing that his decisions and direct reports caused his hourly employees to get less money and in some cases, lose their jobs? This is why it makes me sick to hear Corporate say stuff like, “Our hourly employees are our most valuable resource”, or, “we couldn’t run the plants without you”, then turn around and treat them like total garbage and rub their faces in it. How “Corporate” of you.

You mean TP aka Skeletor has to finish construction on Castle Greyskull in Jackson Hole. The guy looks like his coke habit has helped guided his decisions running BD into the ground. There’s a special place in he-l for guys like that. Merry Christmas.

My husband, former employee says "Polen had one job and that was to avoid the iceberg, instead he drove right into it" He has done absolutely nothing for the company, but destroy it and stash money in his offshore accounts. I can't believe the board is allowing him to do this, unless they are in the same boat as he.

BD has devolved into a horrible, soulless company. T.P. is no Ed Ludwig.

Servant leadership! Growth mindset!

3. 6% at his salary rate? Plus bonus? After 3 rounds of layoffs in the last 5 months? Corporate greed in the flesh.

I mean, I’m not surprised to be honest. The man works for the devil why would this shock anyone.
