Deutsche Telekom Plans Hefty Job Cuts in Debt-Reduction Effort
by Jeremy at 6:29 am EDT, May 29, 2002

Deutsche Telekom, Germany's biggest phone company, will cut 30,000 jobs (mostly in the fixed-network unit) by 2004 in an effort to save over $9B. The CEO says the top priority is DT's 67 billion euros of debt. They want to sell off many assets, including cable TV and wireless, but can't seem to attract reasonable offers. So they'll sit and wait, for now.

CEO: "Performance is extremely unpleasant; [the slump in the share price is] no longer comprehensible and can only be explained with psychological mechanisms."
