As the lone MBA in the comment thread, I want to point out that the "culture" and "incentives" of your company have a lot to do with it's success. Microsoft (and Amazon, which hired a bunch of fucksticks from MSFT) made it impossible to build great new products internally and suffered for it.

AWS's offerings are not "great new products [built] internally"???

Kindle? Kindle Fire? (Not been following the latter, but I though the e-paper Kindles have been wild successes.)

Or let's get to "culture", does Amazon practice stack ranking?
