Solventum just announces significant layoffs moving into holiday season. LOL

It's only Dec and all the ESC leadership and scrambling to ask the plants to cut OE within 4 walls. That's the issue with lack of growth. You cannot cut yourself to prosperity

Has anyone heard of layoffs going on across the organization? I know they sent out a video saying there would be layoffs, but I'm not sure if it has happened yet.
