P&G to lay off 7,000 employees...

So, the tariffs are benefitting Americans?

[quote]Procter & Gamble is planning to eliminate up to 7,000 non-manufacturing jobs in the next two years, the Cincinnati-based company announced on Thursday during an investment conference in Paris and in a June 5 blog.

[quote]This comes after P&G said that consumers in the U.S. and Europe pulled back on spending in March amid economic uncertainty as President Donald Trump began his trade wars, prompting the company to lower its sales outlook for the year. The post said the company expects to reduce up to 7,000 non-manufacturing roles or approximately 15 percent of its current non-manufacturing workforce over the next two fiscal years.

AI. And most of these cuts will be early retirement packages.

Early retirement = being laid off.

[quote]Physician Geoffrey Grammer tweeted, "'Pampers diaper maker will slash 7,000 jobs as tariffs fuel uncertainty' - CNN Doesn't sound like winning to me. Sounds like job losses because of a stupid economic strategy. Trump does not know what he is doing."

[quote]Political scientist Joel Montfort wrote, "P & G will cut 7,000 jobs globally over the next two years amid uncertainty caused by President Trump’s trade war. Making America Unemployed Again."

[quote]Attorney Roger Tansey wrote, "Proctor and Gamble, the world's largest consumer products company, is raising prices and laying off 7000 employees because of 'tariff uncertainty.' This is a harbinger of stagflation. Good job, Trump!"

P&G was one of my clients for many years. I was in the ad business. They were some of the smartest and toughest clients I had during my whole career. Top notch professionals. If it is still like that, those people will get hired elsewhere and do big things. 7,000 is a lot of people to me.

Does this mean the new "savior" of soap operas, "Beyond the Gates," (produced by P&G) will be canceled? Will new writer Jamey Giddens miss out on Free Pizza Fridays?
