Microsoft on Tuesday said it is laying off 3% of its employees, which equals an estimated 6,000 positions.
This move will reportedly include a cut in the number of middle managers in the company, though it will affect “all levels, teams, and geographies,” Microsoft told CNBC, which reported that the company is “aiming to reduce management layers.” It reported that the current layoffs are not tied to performance, unlike the round of layoffs in January.
A second goal, according to another report, is to increase the ratio of coders versus non-coders on projects.
