Telstra today confirmed it would shift the jobs of 101 Sydney and Melbourne call centre workers dealing with large corporate customers to facilities in Brisbane and Perth.
Telstra chief executive Sol Trujillo today said the telco was waiting on more information from the federal government before deciding on whether or not to bid to build the National Broadband Network (NBN).

Rejecting Telstra's proposal, after all, is the only conclusion Conroy can reach: as someone whose entire philosophy is built around transparency and process, he simply cannot keep Telstra as part of the NBN bidding process anymore.
