Rogers Communications Inc. has quietly cut “several hundred” middle management positions across the country and 15 per cent of executives at the vice-president level and above, the company confirmed Monday.
And more change is coming.
The restructuring is aimed at delivering on a plan the company announced in May to “overhaul the customer experience and re-accelerate our growth relative to our peers,” Rogers spokesperson Patricia Trott wrote in an email to The Star.
Well, Guy Laurence who is the CEO of Rogers clearly doesn’t mess around. But to be fair, this was coming as it was detailed in the Rogers 3.0 plan. Still it’s never good when people lose their jobs and I hope they land on their feet quickly.
