770 Openngs - Cutting 1100?

Nationwide cutting 1,100 jobs, 80 in DM

Nationwide insurance will lay off about 80 workers at its downtown Des Moines campus as it reduces its national workforce by about 1,100 positions, the Register reports. The cuts will come mostly in IT, marketing, property and casualty operations. In February, Nationwide, which employs about 3,700 people in the metro area, announced it would cut about 50 Des Moines employees from its mortgage division. "We are making these changes from a position of strength and stability to position the organization for long-term success and growth," the company said in a statement to KCCI. Nationwide has more than 770 open positions posted internally, 50 of which are based in Des Moines.
