Recently, Telstra, Australia`s national telecommunications company, had a major event!
Telstra`s CEO held a news conference and announced at the scene that more than 8000 jobs will be cut as a result of extraordinary job cuts across Australia.
The change follows frequent signal failures at Telstra in the last year or two.
Even senior executives have not been spared, and a quarter of middle-and senior-level staff have been embroiled in layoffs.
CEO said the layoffs were intended to pave the way for the future of the group and would save the group A $1 billion in expenses.
For layoffs, CEO says: & # 39 in the future our workforce will be a smaller, knowledge-based one with a structure and way of working that is agile enough to deal with rapid change,'
Our future work environment will be smaller, more technical and more flexible in response to market changes.
The current wave of layoffs has affected 30%Telstra employees.
CEO said the layoffs were a top-down shift in the company`s structure. And Telstra will as far as possible without affecting the customer`s service as a premise to make changes.
For the future, in addition to layoffs, Telstra will create 1500 more jobs to meet new challenges.
For many, this shift in the Australian National Telecommunications Company is a epic upheaval.
For the time being, most of Australia`s communications networks are laid out by Telstra, so it has never been short of some of the enterprise class, as well as customers who want to use high-quality network services, which is also the most expensive.
But in the past two years, the group, which has the advantage of signal stability, has gradually begun to have problems such as signal failures, plus competition from various companies in the market.
As a result, layoffs and changes are unstoppable for the future development of Telstra.
