Microsoft is offering voluntary exit offers to about a quarter of its workforce. That’s roughly 60,000 of its employees.

“This offer gives eligible employees who may be considering a future outside the company a new choice to make that transition now with support. It also gives participating organizations another way to adapt their workforce to changing needs,” Amy Coleman, Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer, said in a memo sent to employees.

This offer will be available to eligible employees in participating teams in Canada, India, the United Kingdom and the United States, at the vice president level and below.

According to the memo, the move is building on the voluntary retirement program it announced earlier this year.

Eligible employees will receive an email with a link to their voluntary exit offer details sometime Monday.

This is a developing story and will be updated when more information becomes available.
