I’ve never seen nor even read of a tech company so eager and frothing at the mouth to readily run off talented, tenured, experienced people under the cover of “managing out the top talent” then turn back around and state in the next few sentences the bewilderment of “we don’t have enough people, we are short handed”. As if its some huge unsolvable mystery as to how did we get here and how can we possibly solve this problem? I mean there’s some forward thinking for you.

They want to make this country USI (United States of India). They have taken over most of the companies and brining more of their people in H1Bs. If major lawsuits are not filed, we will be second class citizens in our own country.
short term vision to satisfy Wall street.
Salesforce has done the same. Customer services for both orgs will suffer.
Only Amazon and a few other tech companies and consultancies hire more H1Bs than Microsoft. The company is pushing out tenured employees in favor of visa holders. Redmond is now known as Little India.
On top of letting go of people for no real reason (it's not like we didn't beat the street), the way "funding" has been lately - granted then cut by the quarter going forward, granted again and spending starts then clawed back... it's unreal that a company this size is run like it is. Already seeing outsourcing overseas...
'tenured and experienced'='expensive'. My guess is Nadella will be asking Congress for more H1B visas to fill all those open positions.
