Hopefully, it'll be the team that designed Windows 8 and the Ribbon...
Bet it isn't, though...

More likely it will be all those who still think a keyboard is a handy device.

As far as I'm concerned it's still the fastest input device around - try telling that to users though, who mostly want 'point and clicky' interfaces...

Typical post-takeover layoffs. It's probably the bulk of the Nokia developers. MS doesn't need them, it's got lots of its own.

It is well known that employees are the cause of all trouble. Getting rid of them will therefore solve everything.

Company acquisitions always lead to lay offs, that's not news, unfortunately. Business always overlap in areas and cuts need to be made. The problem in this case is that we are talking about the merging of two huge companies, that lead to scary layoff numbers.
But if you look closer, 5k lay offs out of 90k nokia employees isn't that big of a percentage.

Unless you happen to be one of the 5k! A 100% chance of being without a job is not fun for anyone and glossing over it with the 'small percentage' argument is disingenuous at best, cruelly cynical at worst!

I'm not saying it is fun, or it is good, just it is expected. I've seen much worse cases (percentage wise) with people I worked with.

A good thing. The only company that is can survive despite economic failure and over staffing is Government Inc, the others need to adapt.

I heard Microsoft wants to change their corporate culture and the easiet way to do that is to get rid of a bunch of workers to scare the rest into changing their ways.
It will work for a while, but the old culture will reassert itself.
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.

Expected post-merge layoffs, it's really bad but, unfortunately, that's the way of doing business; in the bright side, they may try to join the Jolla team and improve their OS.

Why not? He blames Bush for everything else he does wrong.
