Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella apologized again on Thursday for his recent comments about how women should rely on good “karma” for raises, rather than ask for them. He said in a company-wide memo that it was “generic advice that was just plain wrong” and was “a humbling and learning experience.”“For context, I had received this advice from my mentors and followed it in my own career,” he wrote, claiming he never asked for a raise. “I do believe that at Microsoft in general good work is rewarded, and I have seen it many times here. But my advice underestimated exclusion and bias — conscious and unconscious — that can hold people back.”
