Microsoft has added nearly 30,000 employees after they get hold of Nokia handsets division. He also mentioned that shortly they will hire a few more people for their entertainment department for which obviously they will ask some of the old employees to leave the company. Nadella stated it quite clearly that his plan is to develop new skills which require the removal of old staff.
He gave a fair warn to the old employees that if you wish to stay in Microsoft then you better alter your list of work and add some fresh passionate ideas in it. He has plans to make Microsoft more than merely a software company instead he wants it to be a company which sells online services and applications as well.
Nadella is under the criticism of several companies as well, they complain that he has not given them any clear instruction regarding his upcoming strategies for the revival of Microsoft.
