Amgen will cut 172 more jobs across the country, including some from its headquarters in Thousand Oaks, Calif., according to Endpoints News.
The announcement comes a week after Amgen said it would cut 149 jobs, or a quarter of its staff, at its Kendall Square location in Cambridge, Mass.
The cuts will mostly affect operations, research and development, and field-based commercial positions.

The layoffs are expected to begin Dec. 31.
