This, after a mass layoff. It happened at Twitter too.

Whoops fired the person who managed the one Jenga piece keeping the entire thing running?

Every company has a person or a few people who do just that. Crazy.

So… maybe 1-2% of users are affected then?

1% of 8 billion people is 80 million. Not every person on the planet uses teams, but 1% of the people who use teams is surely more than a few thousand.

I think it effected more than the reports. We suffered between 7-9am. Few hundred people, and speaking to teammates effected, there partners were too and their company.

I think the timing made it look less of an issue as alot wont be online until 9am

Where do you get that idea? Azure's status page showed services were impacted in Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa. Only services in China and its platform for governments were not hit.

Teams wasn't working for our entire international company (~30k users).

That’s interesting and unlucky. I was being facetious - we weren’t affected as far as I know, I know that because there was no break in service for our global teams.

Can't help but think that this outage has led to unprecedented levels of productivity as people can finally be left alone to actually get some work done.

Didn't MS Teams just suffered an outage like 6 months ago? MS really isn't helping their cause to persuade people to pay for Teams. Yeesh.

On teams right now and it's working....so far..... am I just lucky?

I doubt it's a wide-scale outage, my company uses Teams as our primary online communication and haven't seen any issues during the last few reported outages.

This effected us all today. Around 200 staff couldnt do anything for an hour or 2.

Ugh. So this is why I've been having trouble with my O365 deployment today.

Still having massive load times when things actually complete loading.

My company lives on Outlook but I cannot get any buy-in with Teams at all. Nobody likes it and nobody wants to learn it. Same story with OneDrive and Sharepoint. People are just confused by it when other, similar products are so much easier to use.

I wonder how widespread this is. Like if Teams is down for 50,000 people, how many of those don't care/notice?

I started a new job about a year ago, and we use Teams. Everywhere else I've worked has used Slack or HipChat, and after a year I still absolutely hate Teams. I thought I'd get used to it, but there are a million things I still hate about it. I don't think I've heard anyone say they actually like it.

I'd much rather Brenda ping me over chat than have an unnecessary face to face meeting.
