QUOTE
Dell's expected layoff programme is expected to begin this week, and over 15,000 people may lose their jobs worldwide. Insiders speaking to the Register say that the PC giant's restructuring operation has resulted in cuts in every department, "some of these have already been downsized and are now being told to cut 15 per cent more heads."

The restructuring efforts of the now privately-owned PC maker are down to a falling PC market, slumping profit margins and a slow start in the mobile realm where Apple, Samsung and Google now dominate. As part of the company revamp, founder Michael Dell is trying to focus on enterprise-related services including cloud and mobile systems -- but this means that staff in sectors unrelated to the new business focus are at risk.

Too many smart people that don't know anything

..but are always willing to comment.

Dell has never been a computer company. They are a sales and logistics company. Their value and growth was fueled by supply chain (ie buying cheap parts and putting them in a Dell case). It was good for consumers, but they essentially drove all value and profit out of the product are victims of their own success. They did they same thing with x86 servers.

Consumer is basically dead and Dell, like many companies, is transitioning to a B2B focus. Dell has bought a bunch of companies that focus on the Enterprise market (Data Storage, software, etc) to pursue this goal. (BTW, they had to buy them as Dell has never made anything other than Dell stickers. They are an assembler and then outsourced laptop mfg to an ODM in China)
Anyway, consumer PC sales is labor intensive so the focus on Enterprise will require less headcount and different skills sets. Look for huge layoffs in Consumer and client computing divisions and then hiring in other positions to support the new B2B focus.

That how the cooperate thinks....

imagine 1500 ppl sitting down doing the same daily job everyday with high salary, cut those 1500 ppl doing the same job with high salary then hire back 1500 doing same job as previous 1500 ppl with lower salary = Profit...

After all worker are expendable like soliders... when find no worker to work for them, just put the blame on them because they are choosy job ppl.....now whose the one should blame first...
