Microsoft slashing 15,000 jobs!
December 31, 2008
According to reports, Microsoft will layoff 17% or 15,000 employees. Stuart Johnston points out these will be the company’s first-ever layoffs. The MSN group is going to carry the brunt of the layoffs, but Microsoft employees in Europe, Middle East and Africa are expected to be hard hit as well. Expect the announcement prior to January 22nd, the week before Microsoft’s Q2 earnings report.
Ironically, Architel is looking for several additional team leads to join the custom application support group. Our acquisition of SevenLayer means we need even more smart Microsoft engineers to join our team. MSFTies apply here.
