Symantec UK bosses must redraft their master plan to layoff Brit workers – after their first proposal was rejected by the US top brass for not cutting far enough, sources claim.
As we reported a week ago, up to 1,700 employees worldwide – eight per cent of the total workforce – are expected to get the chop during June and July as Symantec restructures.
The American security software giant’s CEO Steve Bennett wants a revolution leaner organisation with fewer layers of management to reduce bureaucracy and speed up decision making; that’s part of the thinking, at least.
Hacking out a layer of middle management will also no doubt reduce costs for Symantec once the exceptional charges for restructuring are out of the way.
