My bosses have pulled me into an elite sales group. They’ve given us a special title. We have t-shirts. We were flown out to headquarters and met with leadership. We were given special access to operations. We were given special access to video software and marketing tools. We were encouraged to film our sales process to find ways to eke out efficiency to allow us to do more. We were asked to share our email templates to a coach to allow him to help us make it even better. We were asked to write out our scripts, transitional phrases, and our processes. We were asked to share those with our coach all with the mission to allow us to do more deals. I got suspicious. Are they training AI on our materials to replace us or to give scripts to lesser paid sales folks to replicate? Probably. So I’m sabotaging it. Like Michael Scott roledex.

So sorry to those impacted today. I was hoping these rumors weren’t true.

Nothing solid, but a large % of security customers I work with went into (20+) went into huddle mode for the past month unexpectedly. Impromptu meetings for service quote conversations and cancelations of meetings left and right, long after the Fiscal Fiascos that we dread at the turn of each year. Brush up the CV and prepare to jump ship before they sink it with you on it!

r/microsoft on Reddit: Microsoft Layoffs & Toxic Management: A Dangerous Culture Behind the Scenes
July 1, 2025 -
In the wake of another round of layoffs at Microsoft, it’s time to talk about something deeper than numbers: the human cost of toxic management.
Employees aren’t just being let go — many are being driven out by a culture of psychological pressure, unrealistic expectations, and emotionally manipulative leadership.
“Growth mindset” vs. Gaslighting
What’s often sold as high-performance culture masks deeply unhealthy management practices. Deadlines are weaponized. Feedback becomes intimidation. “Accountability” means blaming the most vulnerable.
Psychological Pressure is Not Leadership
Many managers are pushing their teams to burnout under the guise of “excellence.” This isn't just poor leadership — it's emotionally abusive. Employees report sleepless nights, anxiety, and a constant fear of retaliation for speaking up.
Layoffs as a Management Tool
Layoffs are no longer a last resort. They’ve become a tool to trim “low performers” and employees targeted, envied, or resented by management.
Mental Health Matters
We must stop normalizing environments that erode psychological safety. No paycheck is worth chronic stress and emotional manipulation.

Right now the spirit of “OneMicrosoft” is completely out the door. Everyone is out for themselves. Teams are ‘land-grabbing’ into other teams areas. You might think this fits some perverse ‘survival of the fittest’ strategy, but what it results in is a race to the bottom of morale.
