Telstra has confirmed it will axe 1,400 Australian workers. ​

Telstra will shed around 1400 employees from its workforce.

The Telco is desperately trying to keep up with competition as it announces a 1 billion dollar cost cutting exercise.

Telstra had already slashed its workforce in the last year, which means over 2, 500 people have lost their jobs in just over a year at the company.

All divisions are affected, with the company meeting with Union representatives on Wednesday.

Some people are taking to social media to vent their frustration.
