Offering buyouts to 60k people is certainly better than outright layoffs.

Voluntary exit offers aren’t replacing layoffs at MSFT. They’re the first salvo in thinning the ranks. Basically it’s “take the deal today (and work thru the end of the year) or get booted with nothing tomorrow.”
A different leader is needed. Remember who runs with the "cruelty is the point" crowd.
