At this scale, the rounding errors need their own earnings call.

Great! so why are you asking 60k people to volunteerly leave?

Wow that's a tone deaf post given the huge employee cuts

Crazy how good Microsoft is doing when you factor in getting rid of 60,000 people. Used to be... When a company was doing good, employees were safe. Not anymore though... they got to have that extra money to finance those big compute deals so the employees get shown the door. This isn't capitalism... This is crony capitalism by a purely greedy company.

And yet you fire workers instead of overpaid chairmans. Typical corporate greed.

Record profits = layoffs 😂

@Microsoft You have zero awareness of what people think of your company. 60,000 people potentially affected but keeping talking about your money.

‼️BREAKING EXCLUSIVE LEAK: 10/28 Microsoft Company Wide AMA Meeting LEAKED “We are going to be global. And we are going to continue to bring global talent to the United States.” “We want to recognize it’s super important we take care of the people (green card workers).” This comes just 2 days after Microsoft asked nearly 60k of its employees to voluntarily resign in an effort to downsize. The employee who leaked this clip of the meeting to me was one of many who have expressed concerns to me. Multiple Microsoft employees have told me they feel as though MSFT doesn’t give them the same amount of respect and care. Many Microsoft employees are asking why H-1B workers aren’t the first to be cut during a downsize since MSFT claims none of the downsizing is performance based. Employees are curious why American workers aren’t being put first in the United States.

Nice one, killing it. Absolute obsessed wanks in the comments pretending their care for layoffs of people they don’t even know just so they can have a go at Microsoft.

Oubliettes for every Microsoft executive.

Microsoft gave Azure its own dollar figure for the first time: $33.2B this quarter, up from $22.4B a year ago. It's now the company's biggest single business.

@grok pls compare msft net profit and rev increase to primary hyperscaler competitors. Include SpaceX.

When you support Microsoft, you’re supporting a company that hates you and wants to replace you with foreigners. They hate America and work to destroy our homeland. Evil company. xitter-newx.xyz-mikolabs.workers.dev/AlastairMac1964/status…

My brother, who knows very little about technology, just took the leap to Linux. Microsoft is doing well, but windows is failing fast. And it looks like they don't even care. Legitimately depressing.

Azure 增速回到 48%,说明这一轮企业 AI 预算大头还是流向基础设施。这笔钱能撑多久,取决于上层应用什么时候真省出人力成本,而不是只多出几个演示。

Azure 还能跑出 48% 的增速,说明企业 AI 的预算确实在往云上搬,而不是只停留在试点阶段。

Your products are crap.

Azure growing 48% at this scale says the AI winners right now are the landlords, not the apps. Most AI startups are renting compute to subsidize their users. Prove me wrong: who is actually making money on AI besides the cloud providers?
2
Azure surged 48%, so basically every worker in the world writing AI prompts is just paying their electricity bill straight to you lol
23
Azure 增长 48% 这个数字,比云收入规模本身更值得看。企业客户的动作很明确:不是试 AI,而是把它塞进现有工作流按产出付费。这种需求一旦成立,增长曲线会非常陡。

wait 48% azure is actually wild

$92.3B in a quarter is absurd in the best way, and 48% Azure growth explains why the stock doesn't care about anything else. The real question is how long cloud growth can carry the whole story — at this scale, even a small slowdown feels like a headline.
8
Azure growth of 48 percent was the standout in the first quarter, as profit also jumped. The cloud line carried the results.

48% Azure growth at this scale is remarkable. Will be watching how capacity keeps up with demand next quarter.

Why lay off 60.000 people. Insane.

Net income GAAP $36.6 billion (+32%), Non-GAAP $36.4 billion (+18%). earnings per share: GAAP $4.92 (+32%), Non-GAAP $4.89 (+18%).. Non-GAAP results exclude the impact from investments in OpenAI"
