It’s slightly early but I am calling this one as NO

"employed by Microsoft"
@case what do you mean by that? As in signed all the paperwork and are now officially an employee of Microsoft?

That seems like that would be a tall ask, especially with thanksgiving this week. Getting all the contracts ready, negotiating salary.

I also imagine there are a number of people on work visa's that would be non-trivial to transfer.

@Nikos Umm.. I am not sure. You are right that these things may take a while. I think if there are reports that a certain number of employees have left that should suffice, they don't need to have fully signed all of the paperwork.
