Microsoft may create 3,000 R&D jobs
HANOVER, (Reuters) -- Microsoft may create up to 3,000 jobs as it raises
investment in research and development by $1 billion this year amid a
financial crisis that has also taken its toll on the software giant.

"Realignment of the company will help us reassign people and could allow
us to create some 2,000 to 3,000 new jobs," Kevin Turner, chief operating
officer, said on Tuesday at CeBit, Europe's biggest technology trade fair.

Turner said while Microsoft was eliminating jobs in some areas, new
opportunities would arise at the same time. He reiterated that Microsoft,
under pressure to trim costs amid a global recession, would stick to its
research budget this year.

Turner did not provide details on where the jobs are going to be created.

Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500) had announced creating about 2,000 to 3,000
jobs in January as part of its broader realignment plan for the next 18
months independent of its beefed up research and development budget.

"We will invest a record $9 billion in R&D ... spend a billion more than
last year," Turner said, adding that Internet-based applications - so-called
cloud computing - would be a major field for Microsoft's investment.

The the current macroeconomic climate was the most challenging situation
that most people had ever seen in their lifetime, Turner said.

"We believe while this may be a once-in-a-lifetime event, it may also be a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create new business models," Turner said.
