Microsoft announced Monday that it has offered about 60,000 employees, or nearly a quarter of its workforce, to voluntarily terminate their services as part of the tech giant's efforts to cut costs while pumping in significant investments in artificial intelligence. A company spokesman said the offer includes employees in specific teams in the U.S., Canada, India and the U.K., who hold positions at the vice president level and below, while excluding certain categories, including some employees in data centers and the sales and marketing sectors. The company's vice president and head of human resources, Amy Coleman, said in a memo addressed to employees, "The voluntary severance offer reflects an important aspect of developing our approach to dealing with changes, by providing greater flexibility and, if possible, wider options for employees to shape the next phase of their careers." This is the second time that Microsoft has offered its employees a voluntary service break this year, while the company continues to make significant investments in artificial intelligence, amid efforts to reduce expenses and reorganize its resources.
