AN EMEA-WIDE reorganisation is to blame for 250 IT, sales, marketing, finance and support job cuts today in Dell Ireland, apparently.

A report on Silicon Republic said the move means that the firm’s Irish headcount will drop to 4,250 within nine months. Dell Ireland said that no manufacturing jobs would go.

The firm said it is looking to slash $3 billion of costs in an effort to drive growth. µ
