GM making some performance-related job cuts

By The Associated Press

General Motors is making some performance-related job cuts among some of its salaried employees and executives. The Detroit automaker did not specify how many jobs would be eliminated, but did say it would impact a relatively small number of workers. GM has 81,000 salaried employees worldwide. In January GM Chair and CEO Mary Barra said during an earnings call that the automaker planned for $2 billion in cost savings over the next two years.
