Just wondering why no one is raising any concerns about misuse of travel budget across the region? If cost cutting is the sole motto of this layoff, then why no one from higher ups are monitor how some corrupt MDs and their EDs are abusing the travel budget every year and booking their own travel to have fun. Isn't it necessary to curb expenses from every angle? Why unnecessary hiring happening at every location in the name of agile and devops practice? Who is governing the productivity? Just creating metrics from number of JIRA closed doesn't mean the project is delivered smoothly? Who is monitoring the real business function being delivered every week and is it tied to any real money or all bookish numbers? Seeing these b—s— every year and its hurt to see how some people are taking advantage of these new policy and make money while some loyal worker need to keep working weekends and long hours including holidays.
Unfortunately this is the reality at MS. Reposted from @12nq0mOz-5jeo
