Part of the 1,900. It's California's WARN act.

An Employer must provide written notice 60-days prior to a plant closing or mass layoff to employees or their representative, the State dislocated worker unit (the Employment Development Department, Workforce Services Division in California), and the chief elected official of local government within which such closing or layoff is to occur. (29 USC, 2102; 20 CFR 639.5)

The latest WARN filing (https://edd.ca.gov/en/jobs_and_training/layoff_services_warn) has a notice date of Jan. 25, the day Microsoft announced its cuts.

Means they're with Microsoft until March as California law requires 60-days notice before firing.

899/1,900 of the cuts are from Activision Blizzard California offices.
