Layoffs at ACO

100% correct that place could go away and not even be missed. As an X ARI employee i have seen first hand. Working there is like going to a preschool for kids. It is the land of gossip,drama and backstabbing to many people with to much free time on their hands and nothing positive to do with it. Amgen values don't exist there.
When will amgen see what a poor investment they made at ARI.

why are you x employees still reading and blogging...go away
 


















So one person says no QC lab staff and another says 20%. Does anyone on here know what they are talking about? Were there lab staff let go or just manufacturing/floor people? Curious who this is impacting.

Yes, it's true- QC was definitely impacted. Seems as though highly experienced people we're let go. Very few analysts, but there are some being let go.
 












Some of the people that were "laid off" deserved it. They were incompetent and made life hell for a lot of people. ACO needs to look at contractors as well.

I totally agree with the fact that some people who were laid off should be escorted on their way, however, they actually hired some back that have no business at Amgen!!!
 












All of ACO should be shuttered then demolished. Amgen (and it's big pharma brethren) are faced with massive excess manufacturing capacity. Figure out how to utilize it or get rid of it. Only unacceptable option is business as usual.
