IBM to Cut Thousands in Europe

International Business Machines plans to cut thousands of staff in the UK, Germany and Ireland as it shifts jobs to eastern Europe, China, India and South America.

Job reductions have already been carried out in western Europe and more will be made within months, according to union Alliance@IBM.

Indian workers at IBM earn 10% of what US employees make.

IBM declined to comment.

Only TelecomCrossing consolidates every job it can find in the domain and puts all of the job listings it locates in one place.

We have more jobs than any other job board.
We list jobs you will not find elsewhere that are hidden in small regional publications and employer websites
We collect jobs from more than 4,429,376 websites and post them on our site.
We are private, and therefore far fewer people are applying for the jobs on our site than are applying for those on public job boards.
