Ann Arbor, Michigan-based Merative, formerly IBM Watson Health offering products and services that help clients facilitate medical research through the use of artificial intelligence, data analytics, cloud computing, and other advanced information technology, has announced a post-acquisition personnel realignment.
The headcount reduction impacted 250 employees between November 2022 and February 2023.
According to a company spokesperson, "Since becoming a standalone company in July 2022, Merative has evaluated our organization and made changes, and in some cases reductions, to align to our six core product lines. These changes align with our strategic plan for long-term growth. For privacy and competitive reasons, we don't share details about reductions in force."
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
