The more these companies consolidate. The less competition there is. Thus can get away with terrible pay.
I don’t know why anybody would work at the second layer of hell known as Microsoft. Third layer of hell is probably Dell or Oracle.

In almost all of human existence, working at Microsoft or Oracle and sitting in a cushy chair coding and being paid ungodly amounts of money would be considered eternal paradise. “You are your ancestors’ wildest dreams.”
