Japan’s long-struggling gadget-maker Sony (NYSE:SNE) has revealed restructuring plans for its Japanese operations. One lens-making plant in Minokamo will be shut, and 2,000 jobs will go in the country – mainly by early retirement plans.
The move is a part of Sony’s larger shake-up that was revealed earlier this year which included shedding 10,000 workers globally across numerous divisions.
Sony is being badly hit by shifting trends, such as declining game console sales.
