As a Microsoft employee I don't think it demonstrated good leadership and I am disappointed both with communication towards employees and them doing this. If you are in a position you are laying off people which implies you are hurting as a company you should: - Not spend money on expensive events or non-essential stuff. - If you've already booked events (like the sting concert) either sell them to another buyer or donate them to charity. The optics of partying while you are firing 10000+ employees is awful. Instead, it 100% feels "business as usual", one email from Satya and a bunch about extra-curricular events and "cool stuff" happening in the company and campus. I'm really missing the "we're in this together" feeling from startups. (I am a high-performer working on a profitable and old product and I don't think I'm on the chopping block, I enjoy my work, my team etc.)
