Life Sciences in Maryland will face big time cuts in Fall 2019. Managers from Facilities to IT to you name it first in the upper echelon HR pipeline targeted for reducing costs to increase profits. Although some may believe that they are too valuable, they, especially those managers 55 years old or older will likely find out that they really are irrelevant. Sad. Some of the same staff who went to San Diego to coordinate with reducing staff faced a tough challenge. Good people they were then and now but now they will have to take the same medicine they reluctantly gave to folks in San Diego.

I moved from MD to a small hick town in Pa 5 years ago after getting the job at BD. MD is too expensive. I'm an economic refugee.
They come from small hick towns in Pennsylvania to take the jobs from Marylanders.
Yes we need a union but too many lower level managers are so uneducated. Some in facilities management here in MD have a phony online degree and can barely read and write. Plus while MD is a heavy tax state, it puts money into state economic development and some people come from small hick towns and take jobs from MD residents. These very same people complain about Maryland while coming to take the jobs from Marylanders.
My sound sources say that MD will indeed have huge cuts. They are doing great keeping a relative lid on what will definitely be coming down in OCT-2019 - Feb 2021. New improvements made in MD will help the company with broader tax breaks. The younger supply chain staff in NJ will be gone too.
Good sources have verified cuts in MD, sometime before November. IT and Facilities, to name just a few will be gone. Salaried lower level managers -gone. Will not matter what you have done for the company. New outsourcing models coming. Take the heads up and be ready to move on.
They need a union.
