The company revealed the move in a last week.

The 800 people include staff at its mobile device business and its home business, as well as some who perform corporate functions, Motorola said. The company cut more than 3,000 jobs in 2009, around 1,000 in 2010, and has already let go around 700 employees this year.

Motorola also offered a peek at the impact of its proposed deal with Google on its bottom line. Motorola has spent US$9 million on investment bankers and will incur an additional fee of around $42 million when the merger closes. It has also spent $9 million on legal fees and other costs related to the merger.

It has been the subject of 16 class-action complaints from stockholders who are unhappy about the deal. Those disputes have been consolidated and are ongoing.

Motorola continues to expect its acquisition by Google to be completed this year or early next. In the meantime, it said in the filing, the deal has made it harder for it to attract and retain employees who might be uncertain about their role after the merger; intensified litigation over intellectual property; and led to increased competition as other companies look to exploit opportunities related to the merger.
