The  second- biggest drug maker in the United Kingdom, AstraZeneca, announced that it will have 15,000 fewer workers by 2013. Last year the company announced it would cut 9,000 jobs. This year, after seeing no sales growth, AstraZeneca will cut an additional 6,000 jobs by 2013. Through job cuts and other budget alterations, the company aims to cut costs by $2.5 billion.

Despite its stagnant state, AstraZeneca’s Chief Executive Officer David Brennan says the company will not see a huge merger like the one between Pfizer and Wyeth. Brennan’s strategy, besides cutting jobs, relies on small purchases and licensing deals.

“We don’t need a big merger or significant acquisition to cut costs and realize efficiencies,” Brennan said.

    With the way the economy is going, you can’t really make accurate estimations. Some businesses say they will only be laying off this amount of workers when in actuality it’s double, if not triple that amount. It’s definitely a critical time in the American nation where uncertainty controls almost every face of the nation.

    Wow. No one is truly immune from having to lay off workers – New York State is laying off teachers. Normally, it is never a good idea to despair or anything else, but it almost seems like the right time to do so.
