> Microsoft is in the same boat. Virtually no users of their products are actually their customers. That's how you get away with producing very crappy software, even if you hire the top talent.

Such a weird logic. You’re saying that Microsoft produces crappy software even though they hire too talent. And they get away with it because the people who buy it don’t use it (i.e. by extension don’t care if they’re spending their money wisely)?



> by extension don’t care if they’re spending their money wisely

What's wise for the management isn't necessarily wise for end-users.

You can buy a product that's great for your business needs, that the users will absolutely hate. Both of those things can be true at the same time.


Microsoft isn’t a top-payer like Google et al.


Sad but true.
