OpenAI employees confess to using open letter as a bargaining chip

In late November 2023, following Sam Altman’s dismissal from OpenAI, Microsoft’s proposal to employ the entire OpenAI team was met with little enthusiasm. Employees cited concerns about corporate culture, financial losses, and the bureaucratic nature of Microsoft. They saw Microsoft as a less dynamic company, preferring to seek opportunities with other AI startups.

OpenAI Employees’ Challenge with Microsoft

In late November 2023, the proposed employment of the entire OpenAI team by Microsoft faced resistance from the staff. The employees expressed concerns about differences in corporate culture and potential financial losses due to the disparity in valuation between the two organizations.

Challenges Faced by OpenAI Employees

The employees perceived Microsoft as less dynamic and more bureaucratic, contrary to their startup ethos. They were hesitant to join Microsoft due to concerns about the company’s governance structure and potential limitations on their stock options.

Employee threats to resist the move were largely a strategic move, aimed at seeking opportunities with other AI startups. Financial considerations also played a key role, with doubts about Microsoft’s ability to match their high salaries and substantial equity packages.
