400...Neiman Marcus losing about 400 jobs

12:00 AM CST on Tuesday, January 13, 2009

Neiman Marcus Inc. is cutting about 400 jobs across the country – including almost 100 people in the Dallas area – as part of an organizational review started six months ago.

While the Dallas-based company was looking at ways to save money, luxury shoppers' drastic reduction in spending "accelerated the urgency" of what had been a normal review process, said Ginger Reeder, vice president of corporate communications.

"We regret this more than any business decision that we have to take," Reeder said.

Some laid-off employees were told Monday, and others are finding out today, she said.

About 370 to 400 employees are being laid off – slightly less than 3 percent of the company's workforce.
