Following the Nokia 2016 Merger, Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri announced end of last year the need to reduce Nokia&#8217;s yearly cost by 900 Million Euro, or 1 Billion USD per year.\u00a0Mostly Nokia will reduce overlapping products, services and sales positions after paying $18 Billion for Alcatel. According to people familiar with the plan Nokia plans to let go off 10-15000 people, out of 104.000. That is a very significant staff reduction of nearly 15%.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the Jobs will be cut in Europe, with Nokia Finland and Nokia Germany taking the major cuts. France will keep most of their jobs, due to prior Nokia promises. \u201cThis was a match between France and Finland,\u201d said Pertti Porokari, head of the Union of Professional Engineers in Finland and \u201cFinland lost.\u201d<br \/>\nBack in 2000 Nokia Finland had 24000 people when they were dominating the Global Smartphone Market. This number has dropped to 7000 after the Microsoft deal and will drop further now.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- MY End of Content -->\n            <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n                 style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\n                 data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n                 data-ad-slot=\"7887885268\"><\/ins>\n            <script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<\/script>\n            <!-- MY News Mobile Middle -->\n                                <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n                                     style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\n                                     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n                                     data-ad-slot=\"3890141663\"><\/ins>\n                                <script>\n                                (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n                                <\/script><\/div><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-19538\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Nokia-E1-front.jpg\" alt=\"Nokia-E1-front\" width=\"459\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Nokia-E1-front.jpg 825w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Nokia-E1-front-300x163.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Nokia-E1-front-80x45.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Nokia-E1-front-640x348.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 459px) 100vw, 459px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The reductions are aimed at helping Nokia 2016 to cope with a challenging business environment in 2016 and intense competition from China\u2019s Huawei Technologies Co.
