MS is transitioning their company and part of that is realigning priorities. So far they are doing so very successfully if you look at their 10-Ks..

This is old news and was previously announced. Mostly related manufacturing of phones. Microsoft is constantly hiring and will hire more than enough to offset 700 in other roles.
