Microsoft has secret mass layoffs. Microsoft has had secret mass layoffs for quite some time. Forget the numbers referred to by the media; it's spoon-feeding by Microsoft's PR, those are not the real numbers. Microsoft uses many of the same tricks as IBM to hide the mass layoffs and a day or so ago a Microsoft insider explained what had been done to him: "Hi everyone, just like many other Microsoft folks this year, I was blindsided and given a PIP/GVSA option and I’m choosing GVSA as the PIP is designed to fail me."
It's the typical false PIP/GVSA dilemma, wherein the company 'convinces' staff to leave.
Earlier this year Microsoft's Waggener Edstrom/Frank Shaw lied in the form of a tweet about layoffs. It later turned out that the rumours were right and Microsoft lied.
The liar is now leaving. That alone says so much as he's nowhere near retirement age. Being a professional liar, he's lying about the reasons he's leaving. █
