LOL full of anger downvotes by laid off ex-MS employee!
I know someone who was spared and that person misuses teams to fake block and nap in office hours !
Yea did they get packages?
Thanks to AI engineers. You are modern criminals ki-ling other people families and jobs through layoffs.
Yeah, Fire Them!
Fire Them, Not Me!
Hope that those who got impacted were given decent packages...
@e4 a lot of managers can be easily let go and allow more transparency and performance visibility
Middle management role dying in alot of companies. Companies flattening the pyramid mainly to become more efficient and to make decisions more effectively.
@cq does it really ? You a PE ?
Today (we announced), effective next Monday
Hello..'Today Effective Immediately' are 3 words that state the same thing.
Are they going to replace these laid off people with AI robots or Indian ?
You can't say anything remotely critical about Indians and their overt racism... but comments about your manager slicing your throat stay up. Disgusting!
Wow did the Indian supremacist mods here really censor the comment about Nadella lying about not having the $80 billion for Stargate? That was totally benign and truthful. They really are little snowflakes.
"Scrum Masters" LOL!
I don't know why anyone would need program managers. That is the stupidest job title. Like what do you go to college for to be a Program manager? Or did you even go to college
If they keep putting out operating systems like 11. It won’t be long before Microsoft is a has been like Intel.
That’s the right thing to do! Intel has thousands of engineering mangers and PMs! (Program managers, product managers, product owners) and even scrum masters, all these roles are really not important nor critical.
@a4 sounds like a manager
