Anyone else bracing for more cuts after the Bristol WARN notice?

So the official notice for the 44 people in Bristol dropped yesterday. My manager was acting super tight-lipped during the morning huddle, giving us the whole 'business as usual' speech while we all know the atmosphere is radioactive right now. It feels like we are playing a game of musical chairs where the music is never going to stop. I’ve been hearing whispers that this isn't just a site-specific thing, but a wider push to trim the diagnostics division before Q1 closes. Does anyone know if there’s a bigger wave coming, or are they going to keep drip-feeding these layoffs to avoid a larger mandatory disclosure? Honestly, the anxiety of not knowing if my badge is going to work on Monday morning is worse than just being told outright. I’ve already started dusting off my resume, but the market feels brutal right now.

It is honestly exhausting watching the company play these games while expecting us to maintain peak output. The Bristol news just confirms what many of us suspected months ago when the hiring freeze hit. Management’s refusal to provide transparency is killing morale faster than the actual layoffs. Everyone I talk to in the breakroom is already polishing their resume, and honestly, you should be doing the same. It is not worth waiting around to see if you are next on the chopping block when the culture has shifted this drastically toward pure cost-cutting.
