Last Thursday Bank of America said it expects to eliminate about 7500 jobs over the next two years after it completes its acquistion of Countrywide (about 3% of the combined workforces). BofA said it ended March with about 209,100 employees, while Countrywide said it employed about 50,400 at that time. The cuts will occur nationwide and mostly in areas where the companies have significant overlap, such as staff support. Affect employees will be notified in the third quarter and will be offered severance packages.
