According to the Portland Business Journal, Cessna Aircraft Company Vice President Jim Walters sent an email to employees announcing the company's plan to reduce their work force by some 2,000 jobs.

Last week, word had spread of more layoffs and Cessna confirmed, but yesterday was the first official release of the number of affected jobs.

Walters said in the email that all pay categories will be affected and that a voluntary layoff program will be offered.

This latest round of layoffs was attributed to the global economic downturn as well.

We have more jobs than any other job board.
We list jobs you will not find elsewhere that are hidden in small regional publications and employer websites
We collect jobs from more than 4,429,376 websites and post them on our site.
We are private, and therefore far fewer people are applying for the jobs on our site than are applying for those on public job boards.
