Microsoft has terminated the employment of its CIO Stuart Scott, who was also a corporate vice president at the software company.
Scott's executive biography on the Microsoft Web site was updated on Nov. 5 with a note saying that "Stuart Scott's employment at Microsoft ended in early November 2007."
A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that Scott was terminated "after an investigation for violation of company policies."
Microsoft General Manager Shahla Aly and Corporate Vice President Alain Crozier will assume his responsibilities until a replacement is identified, the spokesperson told eWEEK.
