    Microsoft is like GE, Dell and Walmart - huge globalists - I try to boycott all of the traitors.

    Their days are numbered.

    I hope that the H1-Bs there realize Microsoft has just killed their chances of getting a green card. The green card application (labor certification) is where layoffs matter. The company has to show that it can't find an American to do the job. Pretty tough to show when you've just laid off several thousand.

    I hadn't heard that, but good luck with that one. If you boycott them then you need to boycott every company with outsourced workers. I recommend you boycott Dell, but that's just because I'm still mad at them for something that happened two weeks ago and involved an obviously worker that was not from US soil.

    First they layoff people they dont need or they are not as good as others.

    Tell me why company should layoff good employees and keep worse - only because they come from another country??

    Yahoo has the same policy. They like microsoft are one of the largest employers of "immigrants." They like microsoft refuse to layoff their foreign workers first. Welcome to the brave new DUMBacratic BO America.
