BlackBerry just can't get things going in the right direction. Evan with the release of the new operating system and same new smartphone thins are still looking pretty bad for the company. Guess putting Alicia Keys as the creating director didn't have much effect.
After BlackBerry stock's dropped another 20% the company has announced that they will be firing 40% of their work force, witch means somewhere around 4500 people will loose their jobs. It is expected that their revenue loss will be somewhere around 950 million dollars. I wonder will the creative director aka Alicia Keys be among those 40% workers that get fired.
Canadian company has hinted several times that they are interested in selling but it seems that there is nobody interested in buying. Microsoft has been rumored as a potential buyer but after their purchase of Nokia this is very unlikely.
