200 potential new participants to this forum !!
''Kraft Foods, the American multinational, is joining the flight of US corporations that are moving their European headquarters to Switzerland in search of efficient transport, lower taxes and an easier lifestyle.'' http://business.timesonline.co.uk/ar...532059,00.html
can't say I blame them considering how difficult living in London is these days

It will be interesting to know how many staff are coming with the move. Maybe there won't be so many new positions as one might expect.  |

Hi,
it is good that they are coming to Switzerland. I just wish that there were more companies coming to Basel. At present more and more jobs are moving to Zurich which means if you don't want to live in Zurich you are faced with a long commute each day which can really disrupt your social life. At present I am lucky that even though the hq of the company I work for is in Zurich there is also a branch office in Basel so I don't have to go to Zurich very often.
In the long run I am quite worried about the majority of jobs being in Zurich.
Happy new year
Martin

Anyone heard anything about this move by Kraft recently? Recruitment wise
I can still only find details for the small Swiss office in Seefeld.
