Bank of America ending 30K more jobs

Staff Philadelphia Business Journal

After days of predictions as to what exactly its downsizing would entail, Bank of America has announced that 30,000 additional jobs will be cut, the Courier-Post reports in an Associated Press story.

Bank of America (NYSE:BAC), the fifth-largest bank in the Philadelphia area based on local deposits, hopes the cuts and other measures will result in $5 billion in annual savings by 2014. The bank has already cut 6,000 jobs this year.

A Bank of America spokesman said the company is not providing a geographic breakdown of job reductions at this time and said was unable to speak to the potential impact in the Philadelphia region.
