Sprint Corp. said its previously announced job cuts will include 452 positions in Overland Park, Kansas, where the company is headquartered, according to a filing yesterday with the Kansas Department of Commerce.
Sprint is eliminating an unspecified number of jobs as its new chief executive officer, Marcelo Claure, attempts to create a leaner business amid heightened price competition. The company said in an Oct. 3 regulatory filing that the workforce reduction will result in a $160 million expense for severance and other costs in the fiscal second quarter.
