Since joining Microsoft in January 1988, Muglia has served in positions across all of the company’s business groups.
Prior to joining Microsoft, Muglia was a development manager at ROLM.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer wrote in an e-mail distributed to all employees that this is simply recognition that all businesses go through cycles and need new and different talent to manage through those cycles.
"Bob has been a phenomenal partner throughout this process, and he and his leadership team have the right strategy in place," Ballmer wrote.
