Johnson & Johnson announce a restructuring

Johnson and Johnson announced a restructuring that will reduce jobs by 8,400. The Wall Street Journal article says in part:

Cost savings will be achieved primarily by reducing layers of management, increasing individual spans of control, and simplifying business structures and processes across the company’s global operations.

Position eliminations will form only one component of the savings.  Weldon said, “These types of changes are difficult under any circumstances, and will have a very personal impact on people who have been dedicated to the mission of Johnson & Johnson.  We recognize their contributions to the achievements of our business, and are committed to treating them fairly and with respect throughout this process.”

The folks affected by this new announcement could use a LaidOff Camp in their local area.
