Jan 18, 2017 : Dell Technologies Laying Off Workers
📅 - Layoffs are currently happening at Dell technologies. These mainly involve cuts of administrative positions and redundant supply chain positions. The layoffs were expected since the merger between EMC and Dell last year.
The deal was worth more than $60 billion and was the largest tech acquisition in history. Michael Dell admitted shortly after the merger that about 140,000 workers would be trimmed. Those trimmings have begun with about 80 workers losing their jobs in Hopkinton, Mass. Other facilities are expected to close soon, as well.

📅 - FCC Chair Says “Nobody Safe” If Net Neutrality Undone by Republicans - If the Federal Communications Commission's open-internet rule is undone, it could open up companies, such as Amazon.com to unfair competition from ISPs, according to Tom Wheeler, the agency's chairman. Wheeler stated, “Nobody is safe,” in an interview a few days ago before he left office.
