Neptune City cuts - anyone have details on the departments?

Saw the WARN notice drop for the Neptune City site, 70 heads gone as of late August. Is this just the start of a broader push, or was this location-specific restructuring? I've been hearing whispers about operational consolidation across the animal health portfolio, but it's hard to get a straight answer from leadership lately. Does anyone know which departments took the brunt of this? I’m worried that if they’re cutting this deep in NJ, the field teams or commercial support might be next. If you were affected, I’m sorry—this market is brutal right now and the silence from the top isn't helping anyone’s anxiety. Trying to figure out if it’s time to polish the resume or if this was just a targeted cleanup. Any info would be appreciated.

It’s definitely hitting the manufacturing and supply chain support roles in Neptune City. Most people I’ve spoken with are saying it’s part of a wider effort to streamline the global network rather than a site-specific issue. Management is keeping everything under wraps as usual, which only makes the anxiety worse. If you’re in a support function, I’d suggest keeping your resume polished. This feels like the first step in a much larger consolidation phase for the broader portfolio. Expect more visibility on this once the dust settles from the initial August wave.

I wouldn't bank on this being an isolated incident. The corporate vibe has been shifting toward leaner operations for months now, and these cuts in New Jersey are clearly signaling a change in strategy. It’s mostly affecting administrative and technical oversight departments, but there's a strong sentiment that the commercial wings will be under the microscope next. Leadership is being extremely tight-lipped, likely to prevent a mass exodus before the rest of their plans are finalized. Stay cautious and keep an eye on your department's upcoming budget reviews; they aren't telling the full story yet.
