MS is loosing reputation 'rabidly'. If you're concerned about your career, probably this is the right time to jump ship; after all, you'll want to show that you can improve a company and not the other way around.
Nobody would hire Ballmer, so he'll sink with the ship. |

I'd rather take career advice from a street bum than you. |

Ex-Xbox Boss 'Lives Like A Saudi Prince'
http://www.businessinsider.com/don-mattrick-zynga-ceo-2013-7
Quote: |
His home is the largest in British Columbia, Canada and it's worth $27 million. It has a 10-car garage, and it's filled.
When Laporte asked Mattrick how many cars he owned, he just smiled. She said, "A dozen?" He responded, "Ish." As in, he has a dozen-ish cars. The cars he owns include Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Lotuses.

I'm pretty sure you take your console advises from such people as well.
I care little about it though - if that's the best you can do, that's the best you're going to get. |

MS is loosing notoriety 'violently'. In case you're worried about your profession, most likely this is the perfect chance to escape; all things considered, you'll need to show that you can improve an organization and not the reverse way around.
No one would recruit Ballmer, so he'll sink with the boat.
