Microsoft Axes 3% Of Its Workforce

In a bid to reduce management layers, Microsoft has nixed 3% of their staff, but don’t get it wrong, that’s a lot of people who now don’t have a job. This percent in terms of Microsoft is about 6,000 people.

CNBC reports the mass layoffs, though, at this time, it’s unclear if it’s affected Xbox yet. Frankly, it would be kind of surprising if no one within Xbox was affected by the layoffs, but it’s also possible this was just relegated to its broader tech business rather than their gaming biz.

What do you think? Do you think anyone at Xbox was affected? Let us know below!
