Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella postponed any comment on broadly probable job cuts at the software company, after circulating a memo to employees gifted to "flatten the organization and build up leaner business processes."
Nadella said he would address thorough directorial and economic issues for the company's new financial year, which ongoing at the opening of this month, when Microsoft news magazine wages on July 22.
"There will be many opportunities for me to talk more about our specific financial plans on the 22nd," Nadella said in a telephone conference.
Since engrossing the handset business of Nokia this spiral, Microsoft has 127,000 employees, far more than rivals Apple Inc and Google Inc.
Wall Street is having a baby Nadella to make some cuts, which would symbolize Microsoft's first major layoffs since 2009.
"With recent babble on on the Street about probable head count reductions at Microsoft it was important for Nadella to be noticeable and set an positive tone heading into the next few months, in particular on the heels of the Nokia mixing," said Daniel Ives, an psychiatrist at FBR Capital Markets.
In a 3,105-word memo sent to employees on Friday and posted on Microsoft's website, Nadella set out his vision for the company five months after taking over as CEO from Steve Ballmer.
Most clearly he described Microsoft as a "efficiency and stand company" paying attention on mobile and cloud computing, a frail advance on Ballmer's reinvention of Microsoft as a "devices and services" company, which could signal less emphasis on developed plans.
