Just saw the WARN notice hit for the Danbury site. 86 roles gone, and the separation date is set for December 20th. Brutal timing, honestly. I know a few people who were caught in this round and it sounds like it’s a mix of departments, not just one specific silo. It’s hard to swallow when they keep pushing the narrative about Hologic being a 'leader in women’s health' while simultaneously tossing nearly 100 people out the door a week before Christmas. If you’re reading this and you were impacted, make sure you download whatever you need for your references now because access is going to get cut off quickly. Don't rely on HR to give you the straight scoop on your severance until the paperwork is physically in your hand. Stay strong everyone, the market is tough but hopefully, these skills transfer better than leadership thinks they do.

The timing here is absolutely cold-blooded. Nobody should have to worry about a layoff notice right before the holidays, especially when the company claims to prioritize community and health. It’s a harsh reminder that at the end of the day, we are all just a line item on a spreadsheet to management. I really feel for everyone in Danbury dealing with this news right now; take care of yourselves and don't hesitate to lean on your networks for support while navigating this mess.

Honestly, this doesn't come as a huge surprise given how the industry has been shifting lately, but it’s still tough to see it play out like this. Corporate optics are always a disaster during these transitions, and the timing really highlights the disconnect between leadership’s mission statements and the actual reality on the ground. For those affected, prioritize your severance negotiations and start reaching out to recruiters immediately. There are plenty of other firms looking for talent with your specific experience, so don't let this outcome define your worth.
