Goodbye Moto
The general manager of Motorola's UK and Ireland mobile business, Jim Michel, has stepped down from his post after just a few months in the job. According to Moto, the company thanks Jim for the "great work and leadership during his time with Motorola and wishes him all the best for the future".
Whether his abrupt departure is anything to do with the job cuts looming at the manufacturer is anyone's guess for now. Although we know 4,000 further jobs (on top of a recently announced 3,500) are to go across the company's global operations - all divisions, all locations, apparently - they're not offering breakdown of where the chops are to occur. They have 2,500 employees in the UK, so it's a reasonable guess that some will be here.
