Microsoft Plans Thousands More Job Cuts, Targeting Sales Teams

Microsoft Corp. is preparing another round of layoffs that will affect thousands of employees, primarily in sales departments. Insiders reveal that the move is part of a broader restructuring effort and the increasing integration of AI tools into sales processes.

Key Details

According to Bloomberg, the layoffs will impact several thousand employees globally, with a focus on cloud computing and enterprise sales teams. This is not the first such action: in early 2023, Microsoft cut around 10,000 jobs, followed by additional reductions in 2024.

Analysts point to two main reasons behind the decision:

  1. Cost Optimization — The company aims to streamline operations amid growing competition with Amazon and Google.
  2. Sales Automation — AI-driven platforms like Copilot are reducing the need for large sales teams.

Market Reaction

Microsoft’s stock (MSFT) remains stable despite the news, as investors view the cuts as part of a long-term profitability strategy. However, employees face uncertainty—internal discussions about the upcoming changes have already begun.

What’s Next?

Microsoft has not officially commented on the scale of the layoffs, but sources indicate an official announcement will be made in the coming weeks. The company continues to invest heavily in AI and cloud technologies, which may lead to further workforce adjustments.
