Balmer was a terrible CEO by nearly every measure, but the one that stands out for me is the culture he cultivated where team members would actively undermine one another just for a better performance review. |

You try and say Developers that many times in a row without getting an uncontrollable erection while sweating profusely! |

I am just imagining him saying "Tech CEOs, tech CEOs, tech CEOs!" which was probably not the intention. |

Balmer was a terrible CEO by nearly every measure Steve Ballmer has an estimated net worth between $130 billion and $145 billion, consistently ranking among the top 15 wealthiest people in the world What other measure is there?
How much money they made shareholders. |

Under his watch MS missed the smartphone boat, waffled between consumer and commercial products, Windows Vista, Bing, stack ranking employees, organizational silos, pushed a know it all mindset (as opposed to a learning mindset), etc. The next CEO did a lot of cleanup for many years. |

I believe he was Microsoft's single biggest shareholder, after Gates diversified. |

His net empathy was -53647863919406 but it never went up, so it was not a usable measurement. |

This is my favorite Balmer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WW2JWIv6G8 At 0:23 it looks like he injures himself but carries on anyway. |

I worked under him. We gamed the system by doing a round robin of bad reviews with the understanding the next review will be a huge improvement. |

Amazing that this freak's first public appearance wasn't his last day of employment. Really shows how much privilege can elevate and protect the incompetent and repulsive 🤦🏻 |

Yeah, we did really well. It wasn't until Satya came on and after a few weeks he laid my entire department off. |

God that's just a slightly newer version of adding loops into Mainframe Cobol so you can increase performance when you needed to prove you were busy |

Honestly it's sorta a known tactic in this industry. I got the idea from old coworkers at Intel. They do the same shit. |
