I ask because there are many rumors that RIFs are around the corner.

Thin, baby, thin!
Change been run real thin and lean. If in shared services like HR, legal, IT, marketing, communications, mid management, time to dust off the resume. Estimated headcount reduction in these acquisitions around 30 percent of total herd.
The two organizations have been working closely for over a year and should already have a game plan of events. The focus at the moment is to respond to the trial outcome by completing the acquisition by the end of the month. They have probably already done the analysis of who and what to keep or purge and that plan could be implemented quickly. Change is already running lean but I could see them targeting unwanted products for RIFs.
