Lay Offs

[Jackbass]

Actually Boeing announced lay offs, there were a number of large companies announced lay offs.

Not saying others aren't hiring. These are what was reported due to the cause and affect because of The election and pending tax increases etc.

Not just the evil coal guy.

Boeing as a company is doing quite well. They announced layoffs in the defense group as defense spending is slowing and they need to reduce costs to maintain a competitive posture.

This has nothing to do with Obama I'm sorry to say.

It's funny, juxtapose business as usual with a few gung ho execs who think they're Sean Hannity and suddenly the sky is falling.

I'd suggest getting your business info from a good site like seekingalpha.com rather than a partisan think tank.

It's funny...you seem to have a thing for Hannity, Rush etc....the only difference between them and you is the political/idealogical turf that you defend.....and, more people are willing to listen to them banter

The problem with that list is the fact that planning layoffs on that scale don't happen overnight. There's more reasons to lay people off than just a tax or anything else of that matter.

Welch Allyn has been planning global restructing.

Most workers if "worth it" were probably offered move or be laid off.

Dana mentioned potentially laying people off, but nothing has happened (check the PR newswires, nothing to be found about layoffs).

Stryker layoffs have been going on long before Obamacare and moving the jobs offshore.

Boston Scientific is closing its Boston location and moving it to Marlboro and China, pretty well known.

etc. etc. etc.

Darden Restaraunts, mostly part time workers, already discussed. We'll skip the Olive Garden and Red Lobster serving trash on a plate discussion.

Its easy to throw blame around when you don't bother to actually dig for relevant info.

Btw, MA legislature and coupe devall are offering tax breaks for companies that have x number of employees living in the state. I'm sure BS took that into consideration.
