GROTON, Conn. (AP) -- Pfizer Inc. says it will lay off more than 1,000
employees at its Groton research and development site as the drug giant cuts
costs.
Spokesman Mackay Jimeson (JIM'-eh-sin) said Pfizer's announcement Tuesday
was part of its strategy to focus on neuroscience, oncology and other areas
and to boost productivity. Research and development costs will be cut by up
to $2 billion by 2012.
The Groton work force of 4,500 will be cut to about 3,400 in the next 18
months. Jimeson says it will still be Pfizer's largest research and
development site.
Jimeson also confirmed that Pfizer will quit a research and development
center in southern England in the next 18 months to two years.
