In a memo , EVP chief people officer Amy Coleman announced the time-limited Voluntary Exit Offer (VEO) is open to "eligible staff in participating teams" in the US, UK, Canada, and India at level 70 and below. The Verge reports that up to 60,000 employees could be eligible, and sources familiar with the situation say staff in numerous teams are eligible, including "AI experiences, Copilot, CoreAI, Windows + Devices, Xbox, finance, and human resources." Microsoft's cloud + AI, MicrosoftAI teams, and corporate, external, and legal affairs are "partially participating," the sources say.
