Russia hacks Microsoft: It’s worse than you think
This time, hackers attacked corporate execs, not customers. That might finally push the US government to focus on long-ignored security concerns.
Microsoft's Charlie Bell confirms security layoffs in internal email: 'While we have restructured in some areas, we will continue to invest to grow in others.'
Late last week, Insider reported that Microsoft was planning to lay off hundreds of security employees in the US on Monday.

The plan has to be businesses on top of your job. It's that simple. You should be making a 500k at least a year from businesses and 100k or more from your job.
Sounds like they want you to voluntarily quit to avoid paying a severance. I would just call their bluff and sue instead. If everyone did this it would get expensive real quick for companies. But most white collar workers got no balls.
IBM to managers: Move close to an office or quit
All U.S. managers must immediately report to an office or client location at least three days a week, according to a memo seen by Bloomberg.
Managers who don’t agree to relocate and are unable to secure a role that’s approved to be remote must “separate from IBM,” Granger wrote.
What does he do besides lay people off?
Anyone solely depending on income from their job is a fool.
Like it's that easy breh. Most businesses fail and most poeple don't have the capital to even start a business.
95% of people do breh,
It actually is. Take a week off from work and spend that time figuring it out. People don’t do it because they don’t have time. I told my wife she needs to get other streams of income. She added two..,early stages but the money is coming in.
Do not rely on these soulless CEOs. The cats out the bag..lay-offs are a la mode even when they’re not warranted, companies aren’t doing them because they are rewarded (stock market)
Before I was able to work from home. I'd wake up 530 every day and be out my house at 615 to reach work for 730 and work till 330 then on a good day I'd reach home by 5pm. Dead tired
You're a two person household though so risks can be taken. The reg person is working his azz off to just get by with little disposable money to even try something else.

Most of the huge corporations have attorneys on staff. The only person it'll get expensive for is the employees trying to sue.Sounds like they want you to voluntarily quit to avoid paying a severance. I would just call their bluff and sue instead.

A bunch of companies have been doing the exact same thing. The one I left did the same thing even for employees that had been remote employees years before Covid. Required everyone within 100 miles of any of the offices to have to come in 3 days a week. And those that were remote and lived nowhere near an office were pressured to move closer to one.
My close friend had two babies during the time away from office and had been told she wouldn't have to come back into the office. She was forced back too. She ended up quitting because child care would cost too much money as did plenty of others.

Left the "tech" industry a while (years) ago.
Been better off for it.
The goal should be self-employed.
Otherwise you're getting taken advantage of.
