The new building will let the facility support 575 more employees, the company said, calling it only “part of the first phase” of its Fargo expansion. The Redmond, Wash.-based firm employs 1,293 people in the area -- 956 full-time employees at the campus, and 337 vendors and contingent staff. The Fargo location “has significantly expanded its charter over the past several years, and today the campus is home to teams from across the company,” said Jeff Raikes, pres. of Microsoft’s Business Div. The expansion “will help position us to keep pace with our growth and the changing needs of our business,” he added. The Fargo effort also includes a 65,000-sq. ft. expansion of the existing Horizon Building, plus linking all buildings, adding meeting space at the campus’s Vista Building and land improvements, it said. Microsoft expects to house about 3,800 employees, vendors and contingent staff when construction is complete.
