Amid Mass Layoffs at Microsoft (2025) Executives Flock to Google
DESPITE the vapourware at the turn of the calendar page or year, there are already known (and confirmed by Microsoft) mass layoffs at Microsoft... happening in 2025.
The managers and executives typically know ahead of time what's coming (or what lies ahead). Heck, they're sometimes part of these hurtful (to staff) decisions. They want "out" before the outcry starts. They will otherwise become the target of scorn and blame.
Now:
But 'snags' is the wrong word, according to an associate. "Google did not come out ahead in that transaction," said the associate.
Were any chairs thrown by Satya Nadella over this? (For reference, his predecessor Steve Ballmer threw a chair and cursed when key people were leaving to join Google)
Meanwhile, the sister of Scam Altman has sued him for sexual abuse. Whether entirely true or somewhat exaggerated a legal claim, that says a lot about that scam (Scam Altman), who now attacks her character to distract from the allegations themselves. Maybe Satya Nadella will one day need to explain to Microsoft shareholders why its leading partner is not only a scam but also accused of (apparently) incest by his own sister. Stay classy, Microsoft [1, 2]. █
