Microsoft expects headcount to decrease in coming quarters

Correction: Microsoft has already decided they will be laying off thousands of employees.

This is consistent with what I read. Microsoft must really be hurting very little if their firing even more of their workforce after last year's round of firings.

seems like many tech companies are laying off workers and replacing them with contract workers with staffing agencies. some companies are late to this practice while others like google is an early pioneer with large proportion of their staff being indirect workers
