Ballmer was a Headache
Great teams and people.
There were some orgs that had more politics than others.
People are open to discussion, and the culture is pretty good.
If you're passionate and talented, you might very likely be overused and overworked to the point of burnout (my lead drove me out).
The reason 10x-ers leave is too much grunt work put on them.
Dig through people's productivity to drive out those that are milking their jobs and covering their lack of work with fake and bloated work items.
