Vodafone (VOD.UK) shares are down more than 3.5% in today's session, slipping to levels not seen since the start of the year following the announcement of a plan to lay off 11,000 staff and slow revenue momentum this year. The proposed mass redundancy program will be the largest in the company's history and is expected to be spread over the next three years. The company's new CEO, Ms Margherita Della Valle, said that the company's performance is not good enough and the company needs to change.
The company's CEO gives some hints in the area of planned changes. First and foremost, the company is to simplify the operations of the organization, which is expected to have a positive impact on the competitive position in the telecom industry. The company also intends to reallocate its resources and specifically support the Vodafone Business sector.
