Sony BMG lays off, regroups
Branch offices will close in D.C., Boston.
Branch offices are being closed in Washington, D.C., and Boston. In cities where Sony and BMG had separate sales and distribution offices -- New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis and Los Angeles -- operations are being consolidated.
"With the integration of the Sony and BMG distribution companies, there has been some duplication, and as a result a number of positions have been eliminated," Sony BMG Music Entertainment Sales said in a statement.
