I lost my job due to restructuring

I was laid off in a massive job cut at Novartis, affecting dozens of NJ jobs and 550 positions in Switzerland, part of a global restructuring effort to save $1B annually

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had seen the signs of restructuring earlier"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't underestimate the impact of company restructuring on employees"
