Microsoft is laying off 1900 people across its Xbox, Activision and Zenimax teams

I sold a bit more of half a year or so ago

Bruh there are some companies I’m never selling. MSFT is one of them

Redundant positions causing overlap due to mergers. Nothing to see here

But when Sony let go of a few help desk employees, the world was falling.

Sony closed more studios than I even I felt like creating threads for and one of the biggest people in PlayStation history left and y'all acted like she was the receptionist

Bet all those studios don’t amount to even a 3rd of how many people microsoft just laid off from studios they just bought

Feel bad for the employees, all week I read how well the company is doing, meanwhile they fire their employees and handing out big checks to pervert ceos.

Xbox is going to have to hit its growth stage, besides that unfortunately expected due to m&a a lot of redundant positions across the 3 companies. Let's hope this is the last layoffs, terrible time for tech rn.

If anything, this should show people that Microsoft is not in the business to lose money. They will cut and discard anything not pulling its weight despite how much money the company is making.
