Microsoft has consistently proven over the last five years that they have zero ability to execute. It's an astounding failure after failure to do anything right.

All my Microsoft friends constantly berate the state of their hiring pipelines. Sprinkle on a paltry comp and this is hardly surprising.

		It was so ridiculously shortsighted of them to decide as a strategy to underpay all their employees compared to the industry standard, especially considering their ambitions are still fairly unbounded (meaning it's not like they said everything we do will be easier than Google or Meta so we don't need to compete for the same pool of talent). But maybe such a decision was inevitable in their culture. And now it's very difficult to correct.
