Work at an Apple Store and feeling a little gipped when wages are concerned? Looking for something new and completely different from your current occupation? It seems Redmond is doing a bit of poaching from deep within Apple these days as Apple Store managers are reporting that they are being contacted by Microsoft personal brandishing promises of greatly increased wages as well as a lucky few even getting lavish gifts such as paid moving expenses. Microsoft appears to be really trying hard on this whole retail front, but are clever signage, store layout, and poached Apple employees really going to make Microsoft stores more hip? Personally I doubt it will do much to improve the “coolness” factor. Instead, I see Microsoft stores being more geeky stores full of…well…geeks with Apple continuing to attract the hipster crowd. However, the added knowledge and consumer based know-how Apple employees bring certainly can’t hurt right?
