Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella responded to employee protests about the treatment of women
The meeting was a response to a widespread online discussion that started late last month and began with an email posted to a company distribution list on March 20. A Microsoft employee asked other employees for advice about how to move up the ranks at the company because she said she worked in the same position for six years without seeing an opportunity for advancement.
"We recognize the importance not only of taking effective action following investigations but doing so consistently across the company. We will develop new company-wide disciplinary guidelines for work-related misbehavior," wrote Nadella,"When an investigation is finished, we will provide to a manager both a factual conclusion about the findings and the range of expected discipline.
