Posted in Microsoft at 1:52 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Summary: Another one bites the dust at Microsoft (after just two years in the role), which shows the vulnerability of this company which is unable to keep its senior staff in tact

Just a day or so before Microsoft gave another sign that it had evolved into an embarrassingly-unethical extortion company, another Vice President (among many whom we no longer keep track of) called it quits:

HMH announced on September 6 that Zecher will become CEO and a Director there as of September 19.Zecher became the Worldwide Public Sector chief at Microsoft in January 2009.

Here is the press release and some press coverage:
