"This impacts a small number of local employees and we are working hard to redeploy them. Our strategy has not changed and we run the company to invest through the cycle. We are building for the long-term and will continue to invest in recruiting, training and technology," JPMorgan said in a statement adding the layoffs were part of its regular review.
The bank said it has 560 positions open in New Jersey and is working on redeploying the ones affected by the job cuts. It deploys 12,000 people in New Jersey. A WARN is mandated by U.S. labor law and requires companies with 100 or more employees to provide 60 days' advance notification of plant closings and mass layoffs.
