Adios, Steve Ballmer (Microsoft CEO)

Goodbye, Monkey Man.... :-(



Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer Stepping Down

Quote:

Steve Ballmer, the CEO of Microsoft and successor to Bill Gates, plans to retire from the software giant within the next 12 months, the company announced today. The news comes at an interesting inflection point for Microsoft, which has seen its market cap become stagnant even as the company has attempted to radically overhaul its product line. Ballmer has overseen a steady growth of the company during his tenure, relying on consistent streams of revenue from Microsoft's Windows and Office suite of software, yet his success has been largely overshadowed by competitors Apple and Google, which have disrupted Microsoft in mobile and left it looking like an afterthought in the technology space.
