Heard from a former colleague that MSFT had a sizable layoff today; unfortunately didn't hear any specifics but know he is in ATX and was in their Azure business. My understanding was that they were going to "double down" on cloud and hiring in FY2018...any insights?
Can't wait til Blind supports Giphy!! ;)
I heard for a few layoffs as well within my org
Several in my organization... +45 which is 7% of total
Yes heard of layoffs too. Very fine people let go 😞
Sizable not true, it was small. Not small for those impacted of course, but it was not a large number impacted.
Office was impacted, but super small
Did they just get to the end of the week then?
Sales is bloated. It shouldn't affect product groups (at least the ones making money)
Is it business side like Enterprise sales ?
Yes.
...and Yes.
