NEVER TOO EARLY TO PLAN AHEAD MORE SITE CLOSURES MAYBE

Where is Nokia with the $1.4 Billion in cost savings by end of 2018? How many more people cuts for the remaining of the year?

These wireless oam modules would be transfer to other sites soon. They are campaigning to get some 5G related jobs inside the company. No idea of the progress of 5G development process. Is it possible that they can find some 5G job internally?

250 employees cut already, another 250 set to go. The consolidation related to Alcatel acquisition continues. Who knows how many more we'll hear about before it's finally done. One would think that two years would be enough, but I guess Nokia will... read more

Three Year, $3.5 Billion contract with T-Mobile for 5G Nokia products and services. Great! Now tell me about all the penalties tied to it. It's a money making win for T-mobile the way I see it.

What do all those people (virtual and non-virtual) in Global Services and COO do anyway?

The team is not hit by layoff after merging with ex-ALU wireless employees. Are there plans/heresays to layoff some(or all) beijing wirless OAM employees? We should prepare for the worst.

I've heard Nokia is planning more layoffs and that California will be hit hard sometime next month. The guy who told me this has been wrong before, so I'm hoping somebody here knows more about this (or can hopefully tell me outright this is not... read more
