1,800 Nokia employees to lose their jobs

Nokia has just announced that they will be firing 1,800 Nokia employees all over the world to cope with its losses. After a terrible year, it looks like Nokia is making some drastic changes in preparation for life after Symbian OS. The Finnish mobile phone giant has been heavily criticized recently and has been left behind in the smartphone race. With missed deadlines, malfunctioning phones, and the recent collapse of the Symbian Foundation, Nokia really needs to step it up if they really want to get back in the game. Looks like other mobile phone manufacturers are going to have a ball of a time hiring the unfortunate folks who lose their jobs.
