Layoffs: Almost 11,000

14. State of California
Layoffs: More Than 10,000

15. Sun Microsystems
Layoffs: 9,500
Sun Microsystems is one of the worst run tech companies in the world. To stay ahead of its revenue trouble it likes to make big job cuts every year. Instead of one big layoff, Sun decided to make one announcement early in the year and one last month. Sun will take a charge of about $600 million. No wonder the stock trades at just over $4. A little over a year ago, shares changed hands at $24. What is surprising is that CEO Jonathan Schwartz is still on board.

Layoffs: More Than 9,000

JPM did not need all those bankers and brokers.
19. American Airlines
Layoffs: More Than 8,500

20. Merck
Layoffs: More Than 8,000
Merck was just one of the Big Pharma firms that made big cuts this year.
