Alcatel-Lucent to hire 1,000 people in India
Dec 16, 2008 New Delhi: Even after announcing 1,000 job cuts globally, Alcatel-Lucent is bullish on the Indian telecom market and plans to hire about 1,000 people by next year.
"The job cut was announced at a global level and we have not been told of any job losses in India (operations). We have about 70,000 employees globally and 1,000 jobs being cut are less than the attrition that one sees. However, I would like to hire another 500-1,000 people in the next one year for India operations," Alcatel-Lucent India President Vivek Mohan said.
The company had recently announced its plans to reduce the number of managers by about 1,000 and the number of contractors by another 5,000 as a part of its restructuring initiatives.
The company is in discussion with other firms for deployment of low-cost WiMax devices in the country.
