I think you've nailed it. Unfortunately, I think those Microsoft employees are going to see a different reaction from their management.

- avinium 8y agoProbably uninformed opinion given I haven’t worked at either, but I suspect you’re right. Microsoft seems to be a lot more grounded in the dollars and cents of running a business. I doubt a few squeaky wheels distract them. Google seems to still attract many idealists who feel they’re creating a better world (ironically, through advertising). They seem to operate with a flatter management structure that gives engineers freeer reign. Also, the nature of the projects seem to be fundamentally different.
- cbHXBY1D 8y agoI don't think that's true with the current MSFT under Smith and Nadella.
