I object to the notion that having "american born engineers" is the cause of their issues.

Unfortunately, my company uses Outlook and Teams. Both are the worst piece of software I've ever used. They're just trash.

The UX is so bad. Things don't work as expected. Even basic things like composing an email, copy and pasting, formatting text are always a chore.

Try setting up a Teams integration vs a Slack integration. Gmail is absolutely light years ahead in UX. I really miss working at a company that uses Slack + Google Suites.

Don't worry, they are also working hard at destroying those products too.

I'm not sure I understand the significance of them having almost no American born engineers. Do we think it would be meaningfully different if they were? I tend to believe that Americans can be just as incompetent as the next guy!

> Their employee base in Washington has almost no american born engineers.

First of all, I highly doubt it. Second, how would you even know that?

> Their employee base in Washington has almost no american born engineers.

Was that a sharp turn, or was it related in some way?

Your comment history is full of barely-hidden racism. Get some help.
