For a read into which jobs in tech are mission-critical, take a look at Microsoft’s buyout offer, extended this week to a quarter of its employees.
Excluded from the 60,000 workers eligible for severance are people who work in roles tied to data centers, cybersecurity, quantum computing, sales, and marketing, Bloomberg reported. Employees eligible for the buyouts include those in its Xbox, Windows, Copilot, and finance divisions.
