Sometimes there are shitty employees who actually deserve to be fired. Unfortunately in the last ten years or so at Microsoft those employees often haven't been fired. Instead they've been promoted.

You always know someone is on their way out when suddenly they begin working on "special projects."

Open reqs that are truly open are a rare thing at msft. Reqs are usually known to be open only to a college hire or H1 hire, even if they interview openly.

And of course all the dash trash that do all the actual work will be gone to be replaced with outsourcing and automation.
