Source : DellDell announced a plan to lay-off additional employees in the future years. With already 3200 jobs cut, the company expect to reduce its head count by 5600 in coming years.
The company reacts as usual when facing a crisis due to a reduction of market share as well as losing the leadership position for PC manufacturer to HP. If Dell was very competitive in the past thanks to its outsourced production lines in China, today all PC companies have similar contractors, and cost production for all manufacturers are now almost the same.
One will remember that four years ago, Michael Dell was stating that Apple was dead, and his company the only PC manufacturer to be able to look positively at the future with study growing market share.
