Microsoft is offering voluntary buyout packages to around 60,000 employees as part of cost-cutting measures to fund AI investments. This figure represents over a quarter of its global workforce. The buyouts target key divisions, including AI development and finance, while excluding marketing and security teams. The initiative aims to provide eligible employees with support for transitioning out of the company. Microsoft is under scrutiny from investors regarding its significant capital expenditures, projected at $175 billion for 2026. This announcement follows previous layoffs and buyout offers earlier this year, indicating ongoing workforce adjustments.
