Whistleblowing and Retaliation by Microsoft Workers Against Microsoft Seems Increasingly Likely
Microsoft is having a very tough week already, for reasons we've covered several times this morning.
Now, based on reports from the past few hours, Microsoft-critical "individuals on the call argued that the layoffs were unnecessary in the first place. Arce pointed out Xbox’s recent console price hikes, saying that “The money is there, leadership is simply choosing where it goes and who pays.”" (Source)
Another site reports that "CWA members have called for immediate bargaining following the reports that sweeping layoffs will be finalized at the end of Microsoft's fiscal year on June 30." (That's tomorrow).
Microsoft will likely disregard all the above, go ahead with what insiders have dubbed "bloodbath", and then some will go to the press, looking to expose some shenanigans. We are all ears. █
