No innovation means there is no bright future here. Why is the company failing when it comes to innovation, I don't quite understand? Is it not important to them? Is innovation too much of a risk for them? I don't know, I just know that the situation... —  read more 

BD recruited CIO from Coty , he fired/ shuffled most of BD IT leaders, installed Coty people. Coty should sue this guy. All Coty associates has form cult and ignore other people: Feels like Coty has acquired IT division , all original BD IT employees... —  read more 

There are so many issues I see at the moment with BD. High churn rate at the very top and bottom is one. This is worrisome as the big decisions and real work get carried out at these levels, many Mid level managers I deal with are incompetent but... —  read more

Although I’m safe for now, the atmosphere is quite tense and that’s why I’m constantly looking for new rumors or indications that there will be layoffs soon.

I am not employed at this time but need a W2 and can't find a way of contacting them - anybody have an email?

This place is filled with lousy managers who hide their incompetence by intimidating everybody around them. They have no experience and have no idea what they're doing, so the only thing they can do is yell and threaten those of us who are actually... —  read more 

I was laid off nearly six months ago and I'm still having trouble coping with it. I've been with this company for 8 years. I was a good employee, always gave 110%. When I learned I was cut I was absolutely devastated. I still am. This is not even... —  read more 

Do you think there will be Becton Dickinson Layoffs 2021? Any news or rumors?

What are the chances of more cuts before year's end?

No idea how many since we are all basically working remotely. I know MMS R&D got hit.

Yes, the answer is yes. Another layoff coming very soon in October. I won't say what business unit but it will impact more than 150 associates. Does anybody who is willing to share know more about this? First whether it's true or not and second... —  read more 

With layoffs now a constant at BD, I notice that my productivity has gone down drastically. My motivation to give it my all is gone. Why would I bother when chances are that if I'm not laid off in the next round, there's always another one and then... —  read more

Seems like 60-70 positions got eliminated in the US yesterday; about 10 more around the world. They're blaming COVID, but a lot of this seems to be that they surprised themselves with their own re-org. Back in March they said they were going to... —  read more

A reduction of GCS segment being announced right now.

It’s happening now in Sep 2019. They let good Associates go during w/o Sep 16 and keeping contractors. They have no criteria as who to let go and who to keep, ridiculous. I Agree with @VoHvxvx-5Pivf on this. Decided to repost this

What goes around comes around. Don't like to see anyone lose a job but for some, it's simply a payback for all their good deeds to others.

Never used to be like this. I feel like BD loves my work and could care less about me. I accept it. It’s been like this for a few years now since the huge acquisitions started. While BD remains a great place to work, it’s no longer a great place... —  read more 

Good ole Sept. Wonder how many sheep they will sheer for the big wolfs?

BD will soon be adopting a model of facilities management similar to the one soon to be integrated into Lowes. That model will result in thousands being laid off at Lowe’s. Permanent reductions to increase the bottom line. Maryland will be the first... —  read more 

Is there a common thread that connects all employees who were recently laid off? What happens when all the ole boys retire? What’s the stock price? 6 months from now? The rich will get richer....

I'm so confused over the good talents employees in BD... why don't you just leave this company? you guys have made good fights... specially those who had worked at least 12-15+ years. There are tons of other good companies in SD. You guys know it... —  read more

Does anyone have more details of Quality Org restructuring? I know they were some changes at Baltimore and FLakes. Can you share more info if you know what is happening?

I worked at BD for 22 years and learned that there is only one fool proof way to determine if layoffs are coming. If you have access to the conference room reservation database look for banks of all day reservations by HR. If you see that get ready... —  read more
