近年科技巨头裁员计划盘点

诺基亚（Nokia）

裁员日期：2011年4月，2011年10月

裁员人数：4000人；3500人

裁员前总员工人数：约132,000人

目前总员工人数：124,834人

股价：下跌61%

    去年伊始，诺基亚的形势便异常严峻。当时，公司CEO史蒂芬•埃洛普曾形容，公司正站在一个“燃烧的平台”上，只有跳下去才能生存。于是，公司宣布塞班（Symbian）智能手机操作系统停产。原因在于，虽然塞班目前仍占据业内领先的地位，但却正在快速衰落。微软公司（Microsoft）的Windows Phone成为诺基亚的主要智能平台。虽然埃洛普很清楚，下面的水冰冷刺骨，然而，他并未预料到“纵身一跃”的严重后果。公司已经多次下调财务预测，在上个月，公司的债务评级被下调至“垃圾”级。

    诺基亚公司的股价跌至14年以来的新低。虽然新推出的Lumia非凡系列Windows Phone手机销量表现很好，但自1998年以来，诺基亚就失去了手机市场的老大地位。

Nokia

Dates: April 2011, October 2011

Layoffs: 4,000; 3,500

Layoffs: About 132,000

    Nokia was in such dire straits at the beginning of last year that CEO Stephen Elop described the company as standing on "a burning platform" it needed to jump off to survive.

    In response, the company halted production of its industry-leading but fast fading Symbian smartphone operating system and went all in with Microsoft's Windows Phone.

    Though he knew the waters would be cold, Elop didn't think they'd be this bad. The company has lowered its financial outlook multiple times, and last month, its debt was downgraded to "junk" status.

    Shares of Nokia have tumbed to a 14-year low. Though the new Lumia Windows Phone devices are selling well, Nokia lost its market leadership in mobile phones for the first time since 1998.
