Microsoft has introduced a voluntary exit programme for eligible employees in India, the US, the UK and Canada as it continues to invest heavily in artificial intelligence. The offer covers employees at internal level 70 and below in participating teams, with around 60,000 workers globally potentially eligible. The company has not disclosed how many Indian employees qualify. Eligible staff will receive financial support and career-planning resources if they choose to leave. Employees in India reportedly have until December 1 to decide. Microsoft said participation depends on business priorities, customer commitments and workforce requirements. (PC: X)
