Microsoft Corp’s declining interactive media group will expand its workforce by 15 to 20% over the next year, down from the 40% rise the group saw last year, according to Reuters reports.

Microsoft has also said it plans to reduce the number of contract workers it has employed within the group now that many of its interactive media products have gone beyond the launch stage.
