These job cuts may be the biggest job cuts ever happened crossing the top 5,800 job cuts in 2009.

Following this as per Satya Nandella's new statement last week Nandella circulated a memo to the employees promising to flatten the organization and develop learner business environment. These reductions could be in Nokia's unit and parts of Microsoft unit that integrates with that business.
