Nokia, world's leading maker of mobile phones, said today it would cut almost 600 jobs, mainly in its sales and marketing division.
"As a follow-up to Nokia's reorganisation in the beginning of 2008, Nokia plans further changes in its sales and marketing activities in the markets unit," it said in a statement.
"Nokia estimates that approximately 450 employees, maximum 100 in Finland, in the markets unit will be affected by the planned changes," the company said, adding that another 130 employees at the Nokia Research Centre (NRC) would also be affected.
