    With about 50,000 engineers across hundreds of teams as you can imagine, the leadership is varied. Some leaders are more laid back some are very intense. At the top, Satya Nadella is a very calm, compassionate and intelligent CEO.

    Some teams the engineering leadership is very good and has a good grasp on what the customers want. Other teams they are not so much leaders as people pushers, with no vision other than schedule.
