TD Waterhouse is giving pink slips to nine percent of its workforce or 600 unlucky employees, the result of a downturn in retail investor activity, according to yesterday's Wall Street Journal. The brunt of the cuts will affect customer service representatives, though corporate technology workers will be affected to a lesser extent. TD Waterhouse is shutting down its Chicago call center in addition to closing 17 retail offices. As a result, TD will no longer have a retail presence in each of the 50 states. TD Waterhouse had hoped to cut 18 percent of its staff by October through attrition, although it is evident that they have resorted to less pleasant means. TD is trying to streamline their operation through a greater reliance on technology.
