Pharma Pac is cutting jobs but others are hiring too! Check it out! (Isn't it tempting?)

A Kemper County drug maker has laid off about 75 employees, leaving questions about its future and whether it has to repay economic development money. Pharma Pac LLC made the layoffs Dec. 19, according to a notice filed with the Mississippi Department of Employment Security. Kemper County Economic Development Authority Executive Director Craig Hitt said Monday the DeKalb company has about 80 remaining workers.

Don't forget, hundreds of biopharma companies are hiring! (We know you can't resist.)
