Hey everyone. Just saw the news about J&J's latest layoff impacting 183 folks in NJ. Pretty grim. Was anyone here directly affected or know people who were? Curious to hear what the vibe is on the ground. Is this part of a bigger restructuring, or more of a targeted cut? Trying to gauge the general sentiment and if anyone has insights into which departments or roles are feeling the heat. It's always tough to see jobs go, especially in a company that's usually seen as pretty stable. Any firsthand accounts or educated guesses would be appreciated. Stay strong, everyone going through this.

Heard it's affecting the R&D and manufacturing support teams primarily. Seems like a strategic shift to streamline operations and focus on key growth areas rather than a broad overhaul. Definitely a tough time for those impacted, and the uncertainty is palpable across the campus. Hope everyone lands on their feet quickly.

Yeah, it's a bummer. From what I've gathered, it's less about restructuring and more about specific project cancellations and some consolidation of roles. The general feeling is one of unease, naturally. People are worried about what might come next, but trying to stay positive and support each other through this.
