Interesting... So according to this ign most of that was awarded in stock. It kind of solidifies the comments about making money for the share holders by cutting costs. Was gonna say would be nice for us peasants to be awarded in stock but then I would feel like crap if I'd get ton of money while others lost their job.

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Each day I become closer moving my setup away from windows entirely. I installed Ubuntu alongside windows but now I'm thinking I want a different distro and need to repartition I guess.
Yeah but those layoffs saved a LOT of money! /s
Wow, the price of a soul went up 63%.
Come on guys, you can't expect them to take care of their CEO and their employees.
With all the suffering that they've been inflicting upon Windows serfs, he's more than earned it. If it were up to me, I'd up his pay tenfold. I can't wait to see what MS has in store for the tech cattle in 2025!
"earn"
Yeah but I bet he met a KPI
CEO (and really the whole executive committee and board of directors) is beholden to the shareholders, not the employees. Employees are not only an expense, but the largest expense a company has.
Employees should buy up all the stock.
Unfortunately, they would only be able to buy stock that is for sale.
