Just saw the WARN notice for Milwaukee. 32 folks impacted, effective late August. Not a huge number in the grand scheme of things, but it's definitely a sign. Seems like things are still shaky, even if the big "official" announcements aren't happening everywhere at once. Anyone else in Milwaukee or nearby feeling this directly? Wondering if this is a targeted department or a broader slowdown affecting specific sites. Always sucks to see people get the boot, especially with little notice. Makes you wonder what the internal vibe is. Are other departments seeing increased workloads to compensate, or is it just a quiet downsizing across the board? Trying to stay positive but hard not to worry when you see these notices pop up.

That's really unfortunate news for those 32 individuals in Milwaukee. While it might not seem like a massive layoff in the context of a large corporation, it's a significant impact on those directly affected and their families. It's understandable why people are looking for patterns and trying to figure out if this is a localized issue or indicative of a larger trend within Baxter. Hopefully, there's support available for those impacted by this WARN notice.

Saw the WARN notice for Milwaukee and it's definitely a concerning development. Even if it's 'only' 32 people, it's still a stark reminder that the company isn't out of the woods yet. It makes you wonder about the specific roles or departments affected. Is it a particular business unit struggling, or a cost-cutting measure across the board? Always tough to witness these events, especially when the reasons aren't immediately clear.
