Refreshing to see a little less whining and a little more pursuit of excellence... Businesses are just that, businesses. Not day care for big babies who add no value to the organization.

i hate when stuff like this happens. yeah Nokia will save some money but in today's world companies liked to be viewed in the sense that its not as much about money as it is about good service. doing something like this is making a statement. the statement of "we dont care about how we affect our employees lives but just how we will make more money" and it seems to me like Nokia is a large enough company to not have to do layoffs period. i saw it happen as a former circuit city employee way too often, a little more understandable seeing as how ccity is so unprofitable, but Nokia? never saw it coming. its dispicable in every way. when people see this article...some anyway who have been through corporate layoffs....they will lose support. im a big nokia fan, but not after this.
