What happens when most of your team is Indian?
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2023/01/18/microsoft-layoffs-10000-employees-stock/11074235002/ for those affected, please comment position and years of experience for context e.g SWE 10 YOE; PM 5 YOE etc wish all affected a quick recovery to landing a better job soon
It’s 7:40am, where is the it’s way to early to know option?
Sort of doubting the emails have even gone out yet. Any Microsofters actually get the email of death?
I saw one in another thread for WebXT :(
@milwaokay please link the thread?
Last time they did this there was a sudden "Mandatory" E-mail in people's inbox. EMEA/APAC employees will sure know by now which of them was impacted. And remember there is usually a secondary wave which is smaller that happens.
Sudden meaning; nearly immediately after the announcement email? The sudden mandatory email informs of safe/laid off?
Satya sent email regarding layoff 6 am PST
so everyone affected should get email by now or some regions are delayed till later???
This part isn’t clear. Said all layoff will be completed by end of Q3. So I guess it will be a gradual process. 10k is a lot so I guess it will go for a quarter
Give an option of not yet.
next time will do, can not edit the poll wasn't email sent to everyone affected yet??? satya sent the email already, no?
The announcement that lay offs are going to happen was sent out. The layoffs will be doled out all through this quarter. So there’s no “I didn’t get laid off” option. Maybe you’re being notified of getting laid off today, but just because you weren’t notified doesn’t mean you aren’t being laid off
Too early, people don’t wake up this early.
but email sent already, so waking up is message queued up
Blue screen show up on their work laptops?
blue screen of death!
It appears that there is no execution list in MSFT yet. Which is totally fucked up
Sorry for folks who got laid off. Can you please tell which division/ team?
Based on the internal channel posts for engineering: devices, WebXT (Bing, ads), and smaller numbers in other divisions. Other posts are from MCAPS (which is sales / field). News reports say most of the layoffs are in sales, marketing and recruiting, but per Blind posts some engineering teams are affected, some more than others.
