That’s not how Microsoft works as a company. If a number or percentage is in your growth target, that is your expected capability.

Your bonus is a range depending on your performance. Low to Standard performance = standard bonus e.g. what the article is about.

That is a failed target. Multiple of these will become an internal issue.
This isn't accurate. :pachaha:

I can't believe people are actually using incentive bonuses to stan war :russ:

Ya'll don't even realize that the M$ execs still received a payout in relation of Game Pass growth. You don't get a payout if you don't meet a minimum threshold.

Stanning got ya'll in shambles:mjlol:

This is just Satya. Not even Phil or Percy.

Major takeaway here is Xbox had high expectations for what Halo and Starfield would do for the subscription service.

Halo flop and Starfield being pushed back a year played a huge part, but MS still went forward with purchasing Activision blizzard.

It's clear the model going forward is to put "Seasonal" and "Service games" out to grow the service and maintain users. Being that it's already profitable without many major releases and a discounted price should mean the service is likely in a sustainable space with plenty of room for growth.
