Ah tech money.

Not everyone has options and unemployment can be the difference between being on the street or eating ramen.

Weird comment when the context is about whether a TECH employee should take the buyout offer vs unemployment...?

Microsoft employs more than highly paid programmers. There are sales, janitors, cooks, admins, drivers, shipping, etc

I would assume a lot of the types of people you're talking about are in fact not Microsoft employees, it's way more common these days to hire people like on-site cooks through agencies that effectively make them contractors for Microsoft. This notice is definitely about "corporate" employees, and I believe another comment noted that in a different source it's stated that sales and marketing are not even being offered this deal.
