28 Job loss in San Diego NIBR yesterday, June 22 2022. Other restructuring to still follow.

I hope you have a plan in case your name is on the list since I highly doubt that any of us (other than those at the very top) are safe. I know there were people who were hoping this would not happen, but that was just wishful thinking. Good luck... —  read more

Where is all of this taking our communities and our company?

What's the employee headcount right now? Will it go up? Down? How many people work at Basel?

Everyone is at risk, the more you make the better chance to be on the list. This is a company wide layoff to cut costs.

Who is to blame now - things can be better but people are talking about job cuts for people located in Basel.

Now let's watch things unfold as they introduce cost cutting again - this time it'll hurt even more. I am fairly confident there will be a large job cut in less than 6 months. No insider info on this, not a rumor, just my gut feeling as I am seeing... —  read more 

Rumors are flying around, rumors sometimes can be true especially when they are talking about layoffs in Basel.
