Microsoft Corp. has apparently launched a new round of layoffs a month after it was reported that the company was preparing to lay off hundreds of employees from its Azure cloud business.
Geekwire reported Wednesday that the layoffs have affected multiple teams and geographies. Posts on LinkedIn from affected employees show that the layoffs have hit those in product and program management roles.
Officially, Microsoft has not announced a new round of layoffs. Instead, a spokesperson for Microsoft said that “organizational and workforce adjustments are a necessary and regular part of managing our business,” and that Microsoft “will continue to prioritize and invest in strategic growth areas for our future and in support of our customers and partners.”
