Rockland, Massachusetts-based Rockland Trust, a full-service regional commercial bank, has announced a post-merger reduction in force.
The reduction will impact 125 non-customer-facing employees at three locations in Lowell, Massachusetts, who will be laid off between July 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025.
The decision was driven by the merger between Rockland Trust and Enterprise Bank, which is expected to close in the second half of 2025.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
