Companies definitely have personalities and traits that last longer than their constituent members, that's what's called a culture. Just like a nation has defining features that will still be around when every single currently living member is dead, so have companies. In particular old, large ones.
That's not to say that they can't change, and Microsoft definitely has changed since the 90s, but the past is not irrelevant.
