Interesting how close the Ballmer results were, I guess you either love him or hate him, there is no in between there.&nbsp;</p>

Hehe. This is ALL about the stock price, and I doubt it has anything at all to do with the person or their leadership style. Employees dislike Balmer because Microsoft's stock price has been flat for years. :( (and I say that as someone who owns some Microsoft stock).

Wow, 'at least 50 reviews per company'. There is a definitive sample size for a company of 135,000 in 139 countries (MS). Maybe over at Apple it is my way or the highway. Who wouldn't be happy at Google, http://computer.howstuffworks.com/googleplex3.htm, and associate that with the big man at the front?
