A different circular of microsoft visio 2010 company lay offs is, indeed, happening on July 7, as long-rumored in addition to expected!
According so that you can various comments I’ve seen — many anonymous from those notorious “people informed about the circumstance” — the latest round will probably be a smaller amount grisly plus more largely propagate than last year’s two waves of cuts that totaled far more than 5,000 men and women!
I’ve been watching this growing stream of comments on the Mini visio 2010 company blog and also gathering reports (direct plus indirect) from individuals in a trenches today! It looks as if Microsof company’s Central Promoting Group (CMG), Enterprise Partner Group (visio 2010), the actual SharePoint/Office team in addition to a search/advertising teams almost all have made cuts! Most of the cuts I’ve heard about have been in this marketing/sales organizations!
(The usual caveat, re: Mini Microsof company: Given the particular anonymous comments, it’s impossible to help tell whether folks who are reporting in are real Microsof company employees or not! But based on other sources I’ve got — not to be able to mention this relatively high accuracy rate last year, in terms of Mini Microsoft comments regarding which teams/products/projects got cut — , it sounds like your reports there are in line with what’s actually happening!)
So far, there’s no word on what this final tally is likely being or whether there will end up being a follow-up Round 2 this year, like there was last year!
In a innovative blog post, published on July 6, Who Da’Punk (a k a Mini) shared additional of this internal back-and-forth over ‘microsoft’’s recent decision to pull the plug on this Kin (”Pink ”) phones! So far, I haven’t heard any talk that members of your Kin team were “kinned” today as part of the completely new around of cuts! Supposedly, visio pro is moving many of your Kin developers so that you can the Windows Phone 7 team!
