| 828.2 | Wonder what the number will be | TROOA::MCRAM | Marshall Cram DTN 631-7162 | Tue May 17 1994 15:46 | 8 |
I wonder why they are talking to the Nasuha Telegraph, rather than
Canadian media or internally...I haven't seen anything here at all.
Now if we can just figure out what "spared the brunt of" translates to
here outside of the Kanata plant.

The article in the Toronto Star after the media were shown the Palmer
DVN included comments from a Digital Canada spokesperson (can't remember
if it was Ron) along the same lines.

| 828.4 | Heard this 2 weeks ago on Global News | KAOOA::MACLELLAN | hardware..software..silverware.. | Wed May 18 1994 00:28 | 9 |
I heard this story on the Global Nightly News two weekends ago. However,
since they didn't give a source for the information I just assumed it was
another rumour.
However.....we are continuing to transition employees - a couple of
guys I know in Halifax got it 2 weeks ago.....it's tough to believe
anything you hear or read anymore....

re: .2
"The Globe and Mail", Saturday, May 7, 1994: page B3
Title: "Digital to cut 20,000 jobs in restructuring"
Sub-title: "Canadian unit expected to escape axe"
"....Digital Canada spokesman Ron Catcheside said the subsidiary, which
employs 3,500 people is likely safe from any "significant" job cuts
because it has been one of Digital's best-performing units lately."
on the same page:
Title: "IBM reorganizing sales force"
Sub-title: "U.S. executive will exert more power over all marketing
staff, analyst says"
"...International Business Machine Corp. of Armonk, N.Y. told employees
yesterday that it will organize its primary salespeople by industry
rather than geography or products....
...Louis Gerstner, who became chief executive of IBM at the height of
its financial trouble 13 months ago, decided against breaking the
world's largest computer maker along the lines of its products..."
Sounds familiar ?
