The troubled Scios unit of Johnson & Johnson told employees yesterday that it would lay off 150 of its approximately 900 workers. The job cuts will affect sales and marketing staff members in the field and at the Scios home office in Fremont, Calif., according to Mark T. Wolfe, a Johnson & Johnson spokesman. Johnson & Johnson paid $2.4 billion for Scios in 2003, largely on Natrecor's potential.
