It’s true that many Microsoft employees are technical savvy, but so are the employees in many software companies. A big factor of Microsoft’s success is actually that early on they figured out how to repeatedly and reliably build software while a lot of companies were/are building software by trial-and-error or by using some arcane methods/processes such as <span class="caps">ISO</span>-9000 or Six Sigma, that aren’t suitable for the fast pace of software development.</p> </div> <p>At Causeware, we aim to create software that improves people’s lives, and enable other software companies that are doing the same. Our core team members spent collective decades at Microsoft working on various major products such as Windows, Windows Mobile, Windows NT, <span class="caps">MSN</span>, VirtualEarth, etc. Some of us also held development lead roles at Microsoft.
