Microsoft Gaming laid off over 2,500 workers this year, but it still found enough spare change to give its CEO a $79 million bonus
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella gets a 62% pay rise for this fiscal year
That bonus alone is roughly 32000 per year that could be paid to each of those employees and that is not even counting the outsized salary this CEO enjoys.
Realistically though, the employees total comp was probably close to 120k per person including benefits and employer taxes, otherwise people are making poverty wages. So 300m spending was required.
Tell me you don't know anything about software development.
Not "but", it's "because".
The CEO got the big raise because he laid of all those people.
I feel real bad for anyone who is in that industry. Make billions in revenue for these fucks working like a sweat shop and they reward themselves while kicking you to the curb for your hard work. Over and over and over.
It must be discouraging to even want to go into that industry.
That’s $31,600 USD per employee for anyone wondering
cool I hope he dies
we may have to start making excuses for the lack of terror
This should be illegal.
