Whatever happened here (700 layoff rumor in Jan 2017). Do we know:
who got laid off
what levels were laid off
how many job cuts in total in 2017
what are redundancy plans for the rest of the year
Here is the link to the layoff story:

How about Business Sales Specialist, AM (Boston) - do you think we'll be affected with the reorg and layoffs?
Layoffs at Microsoft happen every Wednesdays.
MSFT folks are not posting messages. I joined the company in January, I was with HP Enterprise (HPE) prior to that - we have a thriving board here and even after the merger to form DXC folks continued to post... This can be a good resource when the times are tough and folks do not have info and freak out when pink slips are flying.
Now, MSFT is much better operating company and have less layoffs than HPE - so I'd expect that we do not have many messages on layoff.com
