Not saying others aren't hiring. These are what was reported due to the cause and affect because of The election and pending tax increases etc.

The problem with that list is the fact that planning layoffs on that scale don't happen overnight. There's more reasons to lay people off than just a tax or anything else of that matter.

Welch Allyn has been planning global restructing.

Most workers if "worth it" were probably offered move or be laid off.

Dana mentioned potentially laying people off, but nothing has happened (check the PR newswires, nothing to be found about layoffs).

Stryker layoffs have been going on long before Obamacare and moving the jobs offshore.

Boston Scientific is closing its Boston location and moving it to Marlboro and China, pretty well known.

etc. etc. etc.

Darden Restaraunts, mostly part time workers, already discussed. We'll skip the Olive Garden and Red Lobster serving trash on a plate discussion.

Its easy to throw blame around when you don't bother to actually dig for relevant info.

Btw, MA legislature and coupe devall are offering tax breaks for companies that have x number of employees living in the state. I'm sure BS took that into consideration.
