General Motors(GM Quote - Cramer on GM - Stock Picks), struggling with decades-low sales, will cut 10,000 salaried jobs worldwide.

* More on GM * Stocks Open Mixed Ahead of Stimulus Vote * Dow Watch: An Even Smaller GM * China Sells More Cars Than U.S. in January * Stocks Finish Mixed Ahead of Government News * Navigating the Maze of GPS Devices * GM Vice Chairman Lutz to Retire at End of 2009 * Nissan's $2B Red Line * Today's Outrage: Chevron's Big Oil Find * GM Could Take Back Parts of Delphi: Report * CDS Regulation: Stocks to Avoid * Market Activity * Ford Motor Company| FDOWN

* General Motors Corporation| GMDOWN

The automaker said it will reduce salaried workers from 73,000 to 63,000 this year, about 3,400 of those job cuts coming in the U.S. GM also said it will cut the pay of most of its salaried U.S. workers beginning May 1 and continuing at least through the end of the year at which time the pay cuts will be evaluated. The pay of U.S. executive employees will be cut by 10%, while other salaried workers will see cuts of 3 percent to 7 percent, GM said. GM faces a Feb. 17 deadline to present to the government a plan showing it can become viable. The plan is required by the terms of $9.4 billion in low-interest government loans to the wounded automaker, which is seeking another $4 billion from the Treasury Department. GM's auto sales fell 49% in January, while Ford(F Quote - Cramer on F - Stock Picks), saw sales drop 39% and Chryslersaw a 55% decline.
