Microsoft has experienced significant employee layoffs this year, shedding thousands even as it reported $75 billion in profit over three fiscal quarters. The company is also planning an $80 billion investment in AI infrastructure by 2025. CEO Satya Nadella's recent memo addressed employee concerns about job cuts amidst high earnings, which some staff interpreted as a sign of potential additional layoffs or a message directed at investors. Employee sentiment remains varied, reflecting stress due to performance pressure and competition in AI.
Employees expressed concern over the rationale behind the memo, questioning whether upcoming job cuts were indicated and if Nadella's message was also aimed at Wall Street.
Despite significant profits, Microsoft has undergone substantial layoffs this year, which has led to confusion and anxiety among employees regarding job security.
