When a company as big as Microsoft finds itself in need of a reorganization,
there are almost always casualties that result from the changes. That’s
exactly what is about to happen to the tech giant, as multiple reports from
inside sources suggest that the company is poised to downsize its boxed
software business, and the changes could result in a sizable layoffs to
Microsoft’s sales teams around the globe, affecting thousands of employees.
The layoffs, which will be needed due to redundancies in the reorganized
sales division, will be “major” according to reports. They will largely
affect those responsible for physical software sales, which is rapidly dying
as cloud distribution of software becomes the standard across many
industries. However, there’s little in the way of specifics regarding
exactly what teams and regions will be scaled back.
This type of thing is becoming the norm for Microsoft, which just last year
slashed several thousands of jobs related to its failing smartphone business
. In 2015, the company axed even more than that when it began its butchering
of the baggage it acquired from Nokia. Failing to catch a much-needed
foothold in the incredibly competitive mobile industry has been Microsoft’s
greatest failure as of late, and while this new round of rumored layoffs
isn’t directly related to that, the theme of regular layoffs obviously isn
’t great news for the company.
Microsoft has not commented on the reports, but the layoffs are expected to
be announced over the next week or so. | y*********u
