WorldCom to Cut Jobs, Close 3 Call Centers
From Associated Press
Telecommunications company WorldCom Inc., which filed for bankruptcy protection in July 2002, said it was cutting 4,000 jobs -- more than 7% of its workforce -- and closing three call centers because of cost-cutting pressure and fallout from the federal do-not-call registry.
The centers are in Denver, Phoenix and Niles, Ohio. The company, which employs about 54,000, will have 15 call centers.
