Working at Microsoft in Chicago Ridge, IL: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Chicago Ridge, IL Area

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you are the man of action, think twice, whether you want to work there. If you like the status, good name on the visit card, like to be a part of the office games, and know someone with high status in MS, apply."

What don't you like about working at Microsoft?

"My dislikes were: having many managers with different goals settled on one time, working with Excel or PowerPoint for 60% of time, not much action but lots of explanations, seeking for the sponsor, and doing emails instead of taking real activities. There was no time to have a friendly relationship with colleagues. And there were politics, artificial smiles, and a strong push for the results but no support to achieve them."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Don't bring so many friends from the outside of the company. Have a stronger push on quality and results, and less on promotion of the loyal friends."
