Yes MSFT is planning a fresh round. Est 5-20k impacted
Can I volunteer for the layoff? Why doesnt Microsoft have that option?
No, not possible. You can't volunteer and you can't offer to take someone else's place.
And there is no official announcement of it going past Q3. They say the 10K of layoffs will happen throughout Q3. Nothing about anything beyond that. There are also rumors that they are doing what they can with restructuring, Re-ORG, and other avenues to not actually reach that 10K mark. They are trying to make the impact as minimal as possible. It is also true that they can do what Amazon did and announce more layoffs in Q4, but with Q3 getting close they wont. They dont want to impact the Quarterly Earnings that show the savings and profits they have gotten from the layoffs as well as surging in stock price and earnings after the layoffs. They want to showcase how much more efficient they are being. What to expect for those not laid off? Expect the WLB to not be as good as it is now and LT will want better reporting on updates, progress, and impact. They have to demonstrate the value of the headcount they have now and why they need it or need more.
So you heard the news too ?
I have heard from my roommate that Microsoft is planning to layoff around 10-25k by the end of this month
Forget Apr that's too far. it's happening like tommorow...watch out
Microsoft had 2nd wave already
I don’t know about the credibility however after listening to him I saw few similar posts on blind.
Business Insider says they’re cuts coming to Charlie Bell’s org - https://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-planning-layoffs-charlie-bell-org-2023-3
Not many there. 15 or less. More throughout the rest of the company.
Look at received date. Those people are already laid off and have 2 months till the last day.
Omg again with this shit Received date is notification and start date is when people are removed from payroll That being said, there are more waves coming still from the first announcement and I would anticipate another announcement in April/May and possibly another in July after the new fiscal starts
