"I've worked at Microsoft for about 20 years. It's a great place to work. Sometimes the employees are too smart - they forget that most customers could care less how smart you are or how hard something was to implement; they just want something that works. Interview process can be frustrating (personally, as well as trying to recruit others). Solving theoretical problems quickly has way too much leverage over hard-won practical experience. But many tech companies have that problem right now."

"The company benefits are amazing, the work life balance is good. The day in the life of a Desktop Support Advisor is a crazy one. Imagine having to solve 15-25 technical appointments in 15 minutes or less. Then imagine your supervisor asking you to maintain top sales with the floor salesmen. Yeah, really. It is a chaotic work environment, plenty to do, plenty to see, plenty of problems that need to be solved. If you like doing just one or two tasks a day, THIS IS NOT THE JOB FOR YOU."
