Layoffs in R&D in Irvine?

It's been announced. No fun when you consider how specialized many of us are in our work. Kids in college, wife disabled. Layoffs are never convenient; for some of us they're tragic.

 

How many people and what groups got affected?

 

very sorry to hear. How many were let go? . It really is unfortunate. Lifecell home office was cut 30%. Everyone is paying the price.

 

Biology had the most carnage in Irvine. One in Chemistry. Not sure about other areas.

 

30% ? What areas?

 

5 in biology.

 

The one is chemistry was happy to be layed off (ready for retirement anyway). Win-Win for both parties.

 

condolences to all who lost their jobs this week. Was RIFed in 2015, had to reevaluate life. Much happier person now.
Keep the Faith, remember you're not just a job and look into the biotech sector near San Rafael. There are jobs there (it's where I landed, start up, very exciting!) Best Wishes

 

Hope Sesha's circle of sycophants was shown the door. He/they are stealing from shareholders and
disregarding the needs of customers/ patients/ consumers.

 

I am also interested in knowing if Sesha was finally shown the door, the one he should have walked through 2 years ago

 

But so many Job openings and postings for Irvine! So are they are or are they not hiring? WHy the lie?

 

Not hiring

 

I know of 2 positions in research that are still actively hiring

 

So was he (Sesha) shown the door or what? worst leader in the history of Pharma or at least a close second.
