Thread: Whos Firing? Layoffs for week ended 10-23-09

Who's Firing is a weekly survey of organizations announcing (or rumoring) layoffs for the week ended 10-23-09. Not only is this valuable for job seekers, but for business analysts, corporate strategists, marketers, salespeople, investment analysts, financial advisers, and others who are interested in companies that are contracting.

Layoffs announced and rumored this week were in the Government, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical, Financial/Banking, and Publishing sectors.

Inclusion on this listing doesn’t mean the entire industry is down, as many from the same sector appeared on the “Who’s Hiringâ€

Some pundits have been predicting that we won't see a recovery until 2017. To see all the companies rumored to be laying personnel off brings a harsh reality. We will all need ulcer pills soon.

I was hopeful that those who were being laid off were illegals.
