Indeed there's been speculation in the media that Nissan will cut 20K jobs but Nissan corporate hasn't announced that yet. We'll see.
And, there's been this:

There seem to be some speculation this Nissan 20K jobs cut was going to come mainly from Europe. I expect the France will come up with a bailout for Renault but who knows. It sounds like product lines got very dated compared to the other car makers when they locked up Carlos.
Well there sounds like other old names are at risk as well. One downside for Nissan is all of the parked rentals that NIssan sold at cost that may be on the market soon.
