More AI-Centered Layoffs? Microsoft to Cut Up to 9,000 Workers | Salesforce Ben
Microsoft will be laying off up to 9,000 workers in its second wave of mass layoffs this year, according to reports.
The layoffs will affect multiple teams, geographies, and tenures, and are happening in an effort to streamline processes and reduce layers of management, a spokesperson said. Microsoft has not yet said how many people will be laid off, but clarified that it will consist of less than 4% of the workforce it had a year ago, which equates to around 9,000 people.
