So,
1. Always a good reason. When I was at MS, it was management layers that destroy two projects
2. Usually bad. If a company is making money, then firing your staff that made it happen is poor optics and makes for disgruntled ex-employees
But 1+2 mean you'll have ex-MS managers entering the job market where they're likely to do significant damage to smaller companies, that can't take the financial hit of their inabilities.
Microsoft says it is laying off nearly 3% of its entire workforce.
1. Apparently they're "reducing layers with fewer managers”
2. But also they're profitable as "Microsoft has exceeded Wall Street’s earnings estimates for the past four quarters in a row"
Hot take...
