yeah indians are big on feminism lmao
Tell me you have never worked with born in India managers without telling me...If they're after Gates, that dates back quite some time. And honestly, if I had to bet money, I would have placed it on Ballmer before Gates.https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/13/t...cy-review.html
Looks like they do have issues, especially surrounding Bill Gates. But yeah, compared to other companies and their size, very little makes the news. Which could either mean there isn't much or that their policies are sufficient or that they were very capable in how they silence people. We'll see what the report will provide.
I have that feeling that it's not their policies that keep them apparently in check - other companies have similar policies in place but still failed badly in the recent past. But IMHO MS has changed quite significantly after Nadella took over. I suspect being of Indian heritage (actually born in India) and therefore potentially the target of implicit or explicit discrimination himself, he might be more aware of the issue(s).
Mate does my sister and all her colleagues have some stories for you...
I could also give some of my own, but those would be of regular racism kind. Maybe after I find new contract.
Maybe Nadella is an exception.
Which sub-caste is he?

Imagine if people were capable of more than your cartoonish misinterpretation of their culture…
meh
As loud as the news is, as bad it is. Microsoft is just bombarding the market with money, buying up everything, and pulling releases from platforms they don't control. What could be worse? You used to be able to play Diablo on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Windows.Now it's only on Xbox and Windows. Are you sure Microsoft has a bright future? Imagine a situation where in 3-4 years Microsoft decides to raise the cost of subscriptions several times over - what are we going to do? All Microsoft should get today is the reaction of antitrust bureau. It would be better to hire developers and create new studios instead of trying to monopolize the whole game market...
What's next? You're gonna tell me sister and colleagues deserved such treatment because business casual is immodest and they were asking for it? How can you function with that much of cognitive dissonance.
And I'm sure he was capable of more, luckily someone stopped him.

Welcome to the dichotomy of average versus specific. On average, indians have a cultural background that is very much hostile to feminism. One specific, high-value, educated, individual will most probably not be representative of that.
For what it's worth, i have had no such experiences. But then again, i am also working with some men and women from Iran and noone has tried to cover anyones hair yet, or police the length of a dress.
It is truly a worthless conversation to have, and the focus should be on corporate culture and institutional discrimination instead.
also their accents are terrible to listen to
I worked basically my whole professional life in a truly international company, i.e. shops in all continents of this world. In our business (tourism) the large majority of staff is female. My last superior was of Pakistan (yeah, no Indian, I'm sorry) heritage and the best boss I've ever had. The girls in our department, who sat right opposite, face-to-face to me, liked him as much as I or anybody else did. Not even a hint of a complain form them. And the fact that they also stayed for the after-work drink when he's present or came along when the department went out for dinner or to a movie also hints at the fact, that he treated them with respect and equal to us boys. I think otherwise they would have stayed away.Tell me you have never worked with born in India managers without telling me...If they're after Gates, that dates back quite some time.

But as I've repeatedly stated here, the lesson I learned in life is that there are only two kind of people: those who are assholes and those who are not. That's about the only distinction I make with people. And both kinds are present in every people category you can come up with.
Quick guys, let's form a game dev studio and spit out some titles. Chances are good we make a fortune now that the publisher (or is it console producer?) arms race has begun.

Well finance really have a strong bias with the kind of people that are drawn to it. It's probably more of a factor than the culture your were raised in.I worked basically my whole professional life in a truly international company, i.e. shops in all continents of this world.

Loving all the anti-Indian racism here guys, keep it up.
