Definately not all corp. Gillette has many holdings worldwide as well in other divisions. South Boston (where I work) is strictly razors and product R&D. Andover is fluids, lotions, deoderants, etc. Razors are also made in Berlin, Poland, Mexico, and Brazil. Beyond that, Gillette also incorporates Duracell Batteries, Oral B Tooth Care products, Braun, and a few other smaller companies.
So..........while it sounds sizable, 6000 isn't a large percentage of the total workforce and hopefully an even smaller impact here in Boston.
