There were lots of folks in MS when I was there who were willing to tell management that this was a mistake. They were the ones given lower bonuses and told that they needed to get behind the corporate priorities. Some of them found niches where they could work on something they found interesting without management noticing, a lot more left. The people who were promoted were the ones who either had terrible judgement or were willing to lie to management.
The board needs to hold Satya Nadella and Kevin Scott accountable for creating that environment. If not, shareholders might start asking why 20% of the company’s value was wiped out in six months.
