Câți oameni acceptă programele de plecare voluntară. Exemplul Microsoft

Voluntary departure programs are increasingly adopted by companies like Microsoft, which recently offered such options to 60,000 employees. These initiatives aim to reduce workforce size while maintaining morale and avoiding mass layoffs. Microsoft’s program is the largest in its history, targeting about a quarter of its workforce. Similar strategies have been implemented by other tech giants, including Skydance, which also introduced mandatory in-office attendance. While these programs can help companies manage costs, they carry risks of losing skilled employees. Experts warn that if voluntary departures do not yield expected savings, layoffs may follow.
