Microsoft offers buyouts to 60,000 employees
Original: Microsoft offers to buy out a quarter of its workforce
Microsoft is offering voluntary buyouts to roughly 60,000 employees, about a quarter of its global workforce. The offer reportedly targets staff who volunteer to leave with severance packages, and is being read as a sign of further cost-cutting and restructuring at the company following earlier layoffs. The story is drawing wide attention and discussion about what it signals for the tech sector's employment outlook.
Why now: A buyout offer covering such a large share of one of the world's biggest employers raises immediate questions about job security and Microsoft's plans.
