Sanofi to cut French workforce by 'only' 900

Executive Summary

However, the general feeling in France is that the cuts are not as bad as they might have been. Back in July when Sanofi began to talk about strategic objectives in its home country, unions feared that up to 2,500 jobs could be lost (scripintelligence.com, 17 July 2012 and 19 July 2012).
