Nokia cuts 3,500 more jobs

Nokia announced on Thursday that it will “continue to align its workforce and operations” by reducing its headcount by roughly 3,500 workers. This new round of personnel reductions is in addition to earlier cuts announced this past April, and it will take effect by the end of next year. Approximately 2,200 of the laid off workers will come from the closure of Nokia's factory in Cluj, Romania, which began operations in 2008, and another 1,300 cuts will take place within the company's Location & Commerce unit.
