Microsoft will fire 3000 Employees
Currently, Microsoft has 71000 of its employees in the United States and the remaining 121000 in the rest of the world. However, that amount will be reduced in the coming days. According to a representative of the company, the organization plans to cut 3000 employees, of which 75% are workers outside the United States. That number represents less than 10% of the total grouping of the sales sector.
This cut follows a planning line established for some time by Satya Nadella, current CEO of Microsoft.
In recent times, cloud services are becoming the pillar of the company, with Azure and Office 365 leading the way. Just to give you an idea of the magnitude and prominence in this point, in the last quarter the company registered an increase of 93% with respect to the same period of the previous year. To the detriment of it, both Windows licenses and other products (eg Windows Phone) throw red numbers in different sizes.
Redmond said:
"Microsoft is implementing changes to better serve our customers and partners, and we are now taking steps to notify some employees that their work is being considered or that they will be removed from their positions. On a regular basis.This may result in increased investment on some occasions and, from time to time, redistribution in others. "
Very sad for those jobs

@interpreter I don't think that will happen, and even if it does, it definitely won't be in the near future.

We are writing the next step towards evolution, quantum computing is just a few decades away ... After that, I think we would be just dust in the wind ... If I have the option to become a conscious machine I would change this body for an artificial one so I don't go obsolete :)

Very upsetting, after all their efforts. "Thank you and goodbye."
