Microsoft said Monday that it’s offering buyouts to a wide swath of employees as it strives to balance a costly artificial intelligence infrastructure build-out with capital efficiency.
The software maker announced a new voluntary exit offer for certain workers in the U.S., Canada, India and the United Kingdom at its experience level of 70 or below.
Around 60,000 people are eligible, according to a person familiar with the matter, who asked not to be named while discussing an internal matter. The effort affects about 27% of Microsoft’s total workforce of 223,000 people.
Is it just me or does this read like it’s trying to put a positive spin on 60,000 people being forced out of their jobs?
Like, you think they’re just gonna let people stay employed? It’s basically take this money and fuck off, or we’ll just fire you later on anyway.




Every new windows release they do a 10 level crunch. You’re expected to grind back up to level cap before you start gearing. People who are still at level 70 or below are about 2 releases behind and either need to start running 5-mans or do the catch up quests to get back to cap.
