I'd still not leave Microsoft for zynga even if it was double because it's not really as big as Microsoft. It's all about job security

I don't know man. Maybe Zynga was a bad idea.


For him to leave, it must of been a big paycheck.

Zynga isn't doing very well at the moment. His Job isn't what you can call 'stable' in my opinion

They might pay him well, who knows.


Pay is likely a large factor on why he changed companies.
