MICROSOFT ANNOUNCED ON Wednesday morning it's eliminating 9,000 workers companywide in a second wave of layoffs this year.

The cuts will have an impact across teams, geographies, and tenure and are made in an effort to streamline processes and reduce layers of management, a company spokesperson said. The terminations follow an earlier round of layoffs in May that hit 6,000 people and fell hardest on product and engineering positions.
