Lol. What does it matter if it's part of the acronym or not? Just go to Microsoft if you want to work there.

FAANG is a description of stocks that met a certain criteria a while back (2011?). At the time, Microsoft did not meet the criteria, simple as that.

People have bastardized FAANG to mean something else than what it actually means.

Big Tech works for lumping Microsoft in with Facebook/Google/etc, so it's easier (for me, at least) to just refer to BT than FAANG.

Are you sure it wasn't just Maria Bartiromo or Jim Cramer coming up with some random label? I don't think this came from a hardline definition of anything.

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.
