Microsoft continues to lay off employees
After 6000 people have already been laid off, Microsoft announced another 300 layoffs. This decision was made due to updates in the company's organizational structure and affected not only programmers but also marketers, managers, lawyers, and scientists.
A Microsoft representative explained: 'Layoffs are an important component of the company's success in the face of constant changes in the technology market.'
This move by the company indicates that large technology companies are increasingly focusing on the development of artificial intelligence, which leads to a reduction in the number of employees. The use of artificial intelligence can simplify the software development process, but at the same time, it can also lead to a decrease in the number of jobs.
Further employee reductions at Microsoft reflect the overall trend of companies focusing their efforts on enhancing technologies, which can have both positive and negative consequences for jobs.Read also
