NADELLA mentioned that two years ago, Microsoft investigated Gates' extramarital affair with a female employee around 2000. This week, the relationship just came out. According to reports, Gates had an improper relationship with a Microsoft female employee during his tenure as chairman of the board of directors and chief software architect of Microsoft. A spokesman for gates also admitted this "Microsoft in 2021 is very different from Microsoft in 2000," NADELLA said in an interview on Friday“ For me and all of us at Microsoft, we pay a lot of attention to culture, diversity and inclusiveness, and the daily feelings of our employees are even more important to us. " < p > a Microsoft spokesman confirmed on Sunday that the company "received queries in the second half of 2019 about Bill Gates' attempt to establish an intimate relationship with a female employee of the company in 2000." "A committee of the board of directors, with the assistance of an external law firm, has reviewed the issue in order to conduct a thorough investigation," the spokesman said“ Throughout the investigation, Microsoft has provided extensive support to the employees who raised questions.
