Jobs 4/23/09
I was enjoying the break from bad jobs headlines. Today they’re back:
Wells Fargo Said to Eliminate About 150 Jobs in Investment Bank — The article points out that Wells has been on a hiring binge because of the uptick in mortgage originations. +5,000 vs -150? Not too shabby.
Lloyds Banking to Cut 985 Jobs at Motor Finance Unit — Yeah, car sales aren’t going so well in the UK, either.
Stora to Cut 2,000 Jobs as Losses Mount; Shares Gain — Europe’s largest papermaker having some problems. It looks like these jobs will be from Finland and Germany.
I prefer it when there’s a lack of job cut headlines.
