傳微軟將裁員1.5萬人
近來有關電腦軟體業巨擘微軟公司將裁員的謠言滿天飛,科技網站Fudzilla去年十二月卅日宣稱,微軟將進行該公司成立卅二年來第一次全球大規模裁員,總共將有一萬五千名微軟人失去飯碗。 Fudzilla有關微軟的消息一向相當準確,這回該網站在其報導中信誓旦旦表示,微軟大規模裁員不再是謠言,而是事實,一月十五日將有一萬五千名微軟員工接到解雇通知,占微軟全球九萬一千名員工的一七%。 這則報導說,微軟MSN部門在這波裁員中可能首當其衝,而以地區論,歐洲、中東和非洲的裁員規模可能高過其他地區。報導指出,微軟的Xbox 360遊戲主機近來銷路相當不錯,因此該部門員工可望保住飯碗。 Fudzilla網站又說,微軟定於一月廿二日公布今年第二季獲利預測,該公司選擇在公布財測前一周進行裁員,顯然不是巧合,而是有備而來。 |

Microsoft getting ready to lay off 17% of staff Written by Lars-Göran Nilsson Tuesday, 30 December 2008 09:06 Worldwide cutbacks The rumor that Microsoft was set to lay off people on January 15th, 2009 is no longer a rumor but a fact. Staff at Microsoft have been informed that the company is readying major layoffs to its worldwide operations and it's not a small cut, either. Currently Microsoft employs about 90,000 people across the world and from what we're hearing, some 15,000 of those are expected to be giving marching orders come January 15th. That's almost 17 percent of Microsoft's total work force, not exactly a small number. So far, we haven't managed to confirm what departments or regions will be hit the worst, but we're hearing that MSN might be carrying the brunt of the layoffs. We're also hearing rumors about the possibility of somewhat larger staff cuts at Microsoft EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa). It's unlikely that Microsoft will be laying off a lot of people in departments and regions that are doing well, and considering the recent upturn in console sales, we have a feeling that at least most of the people working in the Xbox 360 departments will be pretty safe. The layoffs will take place a week before Microsoft's Q2 earnings report, which takes place on the 22nd of January 2009, and it doesn't seem like the date set for the layoffs is coincidental. We'll bring you more on this subject as it unfolds. |
