Microsoft
Hiring steadilyAmong 2,500 cached profiles observed, Microsoft saw net turnover near zero (5 joined, 4 left) over 90 days, but departures included a Senior Product Manager for Agentic AI CoPilot Platform & CRM and a Principal Software Development Engineer — roles central to the company's AI platform strategy. Engineering dominates the function mix at 430 profiles, with product (27) and research (11) notably smaller, while 7 profiles signaled open-to-work status. One promotion elevated a Senior to Lead Software Engineer, but the senior AI product exit suggests potential friction or opportunity elsewhere in the AI tooling market.
