To: All Employees

Late yesterday we reaffirmed our strategy and commitment to the high-growth area
s of our customers' businesses, while announcing
that will be eliminating approximately 4,000 regular, full-tim positions in the
near term across the company.
The ongoing alignment of our ork force and product portfolio will further fuel o
ur high-growth engines of Optical, Local and Wireless
Internet, and eBusiness. It will also enable us to further our
position as the leader in delivering highperformance Internet
solutions. Most importantly, it will enable us to meet the existing
and emerging needs of customers. As we continue the focus on the
high-growth areas of our business, we'll be eliminating position in
organizations and those business initiatives that aren't in line with
our strategic direction and the long-term profitable growth of thecompany. In addition, we will be addressing opportunities to align
our workforce with shifts in our customers' needs and transitions
from older to newer technologies across our product portfolios.
I know these streamlining efforts will be diffcult for those employees
who are impacted. We will try minimize these impacts by offering the
affected employees appropriate termination arrangements, which may
include serverance and outplacement services. We expect to continue
hiring to address our high growth markets in 2001 and expect the size
of our work force, including our joint ventures, to remain at about
94,500 regular, full-time employees. Part of our respondsibility in
fueling our growth businesses is to ensure increasing customer
loyalty,returns on customer relationships, speed and agility - all of
which are vital in the markets in which we compete. The commitment of
you and your teams to those principles will help ensure our continued
global leadership going forward.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
