Other than the obviousness of the new MS being worse than the old MS? Between the major issues Windows 10 has in almost all respects but not limited to shocking privacy issues, the very poor quality of updates, and the hamfisted way Win10 was forced on some users, I suspect we'll be missing the Gates/Balmer years more and more. As someone who has to roll out 100 Win10 workstations, I can't believe the shit I have to jump through to get basic funtionality and how the defaults in terms of start menu items, included apps, privacy, gpo limitations, etc is highly business inappropriate, even with professional volume licenses.
I'm not sure what the "New Microsoft" really means, but from what I've seen its something that has only added hassle to enterprise and chased more people into the loving arms of OSX. Everyone in my social circle now has a mac after toughing out on 7 and giving up on 10. Nadella's run is starting to look like a Marissa Mayer-like run to me. A welcomed change of leadership from the tech press but one that was unable to fix historic problems and also introduced their own new set of problems.
