Microsoft is also way nicer to employees. I worked at Blizzard, where there was a 10%, maybe 15% promotion budget - you'd have to work a role about 7-10 years to get promoted from associate to mid-level. Someone moved over from Microsoft and they told us that Microsoft has a 30% promotion budget - you can get promoted every 3-4 years, like clockwork. It's shit like that which would significantly improve the financial well-being of employees. I want this merger to go through so my friends still working there can stop being in such financial despair because they refuse to leave due to mental health problems/anxiety.
