We don't like company-only tags, and there's been various crusades in the past to purge them:

• Can we get rid of the company tags?
• Company tag necromancy: The zombie apocalypse!
• What should the [microsoft] tag be used for?
• Lotus tag cleanup
• Retagging [microsoft] questions
• Retagging [google] questions
• Retagging [firefox] [mozilla] questions?

Unlike a specific product, a company does not represent an area of expertise. Someone could be an expert in one product, but have no idea about another. microsoft is a prime example of this, with Office, OS, Apps, Phone and other software & hardware to cover, it's likely an expert in one does not necessarily make them an expert in the other.

Is this something that we consider a problem? If so, break out the pitchforks!

• In some cases, the questions should be retagged to more specific product tags
• In others, the tag should simply be removed outright.

There are more than the few I've listed below, so feel free to add them as you find them.
