Sun to cut 3000 jobs in the wake of Oracle takeover

Sun Microsystems plans to slash about 3000 jobs around North America as part of the company’s restructuring plan, it was announced today.

Sun Microsystems’ board of directors confirmed this morning the company needed to “better align” its resources with its strategic objectives, which includes making 3000 people redundant over the next 12 months. The move comes about two months after database giant Oracle bought the company.
