A 21-Year Veteran Of Xbox Who Is Suddenly No Longer At The Company Says She Has ‘Serious Concerns’ About The Whole Process

Helen Chiang had been at Microsoft since 2005. She spent over a decade overseeing Minecraft , the company’s most important gaming franchise, and survived this year’s big Xbox “reset” with a promotion to the role of the gaming division’s chief operating officer. Barely three months later, she’s suddenly out at the company she called home for more than two decades, a development which generated tons of speculation about whether she was fired or not. Chiang now says she’s breaking her silence to set the record straight.
