Unidentified sources who spoke to BI claimed Microsoft would likely backfill the jobs cut this month, meaning there wouldn’t be much of a reduction in overall headcount. Microsoft confirmed this to be the case.
This sounds more like a mass firing than layoffs, but I guess that’s semantics.
This sounds like the Circuit City paradigm, which is to fire all your expensive experienced workers and try to fill their roles with fresh-faced grads or, more likely, H1B people from India at the absolute minimum pay scale.

I wonder if that’s why Microsoft’s recent products are, you know, the way they are.
