Ron Burgundy Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 HELSINKI/PARIS (Reuters) - Telecom network equipment maker Nokia is planning to cut thousands of jobs globally, including 1,400 in Germany and 1,300 in its native Finland, as part of a cost-cutting program following the acquisition of Alcatel-Lucent earlier this year. In France, Nokia said on Wednesday it will cut only 400 jobs, but will also create 500 posts in research and development, in line with a promise to the French government last year when it was negotiating the Alcatel deal. "The pledges made by Nokia when it bought Alcatel-Lucent have been kept," said Frédéric Aussedat, a representative of the CFE-CGC union in France.
