According to multiple media sources, Microsoft plans to lay off more than 10,000 employees, and may reduce the size of recruiters by as much as 1/3. It is reported that Microsoft may announce a worldwide layoff plan within a few days, and the company is considering cutting about 5% of its workforce. According to filing documents, as of June 30 last year, Microsoft had 221,000 employees worldwide, including 122,000 in the United States and 99,000 overseas. A 5% layoff ratio means that about 11,000 Microsoft employees will lose their jobs. | Related reading (Financial Association)

For an established technology company like Microsoft to lay off 10,000 employees, it seems that it can fully explain that “landlords have no surplus food.” However, under the prospect of the upcoming recession, most economies in the world are actually cautious about investing in the new year, but the media and the public seem to pay more attention to technology companies. When it comes to layoffs, Chinese and American media are everywhere. It is the information of large-scale layoffs of technology companies.

In fact, while tech stocks have slumped amid rate hikes, the Nasdaq remains above pre-pandemic levels. And after layoffs, many companies are still much larger than they were before the pandemic. In addition to technology companies, there may be more companies in other industries that have fallen into recession but have not received everyone’s attention.
