Working at Microsoft in Redmond, WA: 393 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Redmond, WA Area

"The best place to work at. People, leadership, compensation, benefits etc are amazing."

"I have worked as a Developer for around 7 years with technology stack that includes C#, ASP.Net, MVC, Angular, SQL etc. From last 3 years, I am working as a Customer Facing Engineer in Microsoft for Azure PAAS Products."

"Moving due to needing to relocate. Other than that, Microsoft has been a great company to work for, with great opportunities and a work-life balance. It is a huge company, so be prepared to have a completely different experience depending on your team and manager. You own your career, and moving internally is easy if you are having good performance."

"I have worked for Microsoft for about 3 yrs and totally enjoyed my time here"

"Great company with full of fresh challenges and growth opportunities."

"Good company to work for but with a lot of politics and group interests. Hard to make changes and improvements and a lot of push back from people in other groups."

"Great place for working. And learned a lot from my team."

"Bureaucratic and top-heavy with lots of people getting promoted based on relationships vs merit. Would advise against working there for any non-tech / non-product folks as the product runs the show."

"As a employee who has joined to the company during the pandemic, I feel like the onboarding process was pretty difficult. I can understand the difficulties from the employer side as well, but still I was expecting much more than this."

"Microsoft has a well developed, socially conscious culture. The influence of central Program Management Office is less evident than in other extremely large companies partially due to the breadth of efforts not always falling into traditional practices. Creativity is especially prized."

"I worked for 8 years at Microsoft and found it very rewarding. The pay and benefits were second to none although the internal politics were sometimes difficult to navigate. Many times when recruiting people I would say the good thing about Microsoft is that it has a lot of money, and the bad thing about Microsoft is that it has a lot of money. Too many competing priorities, VP level people are indecisive."

"I've worked in Microsoft as a contracted product manager for about six months. Organization is huge and the product/services you work on could have significant relationship with many other product/services within the organization. It requires a good understanding about many other teams/products/services within the organization to be able to move quickly."

"I worked for microsoft for 13 years. They treated me just fine."

"nice and easy to use the application apply"

"Overall a great company that leads in all software and technical fields."
