Hundreds more layoffs could be in store this week for MCI employees in Tulsa. MCI, formerly known as Worldcom, employs about 1,800 people in Tulsa.

Anonymous workers at the Tulsa facility tell the News on 6 that about 400 layoffs are expected on Friday. So far, the company has not confirmed that.

If true, it's also not clear how it fits in with the company's pledge to "create" 1,600 jobs in Tulsa over the next 10 years. MCI made that deal with the state to avoid being charged with fraud from the Worldcom scandal.
