Microsoft Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Microsoft is a great company to work for, filled with brilliant people. Compensation and benefits are unbeatable in the industry."

"Great place good benefits."

"I have been working with Microsoft for over a year and since my day of joining, I have found it very interesting. I am so happy to extend my helping hands to customers who come to me when they have issues with SCOM."

"I've worked for Microsoft for 5 years. It was an amazing learning experience. I became pretty independent and self-reliant and learned a lot from many of my coworkers. The company tries to keep its employees as happy as possible and the benefits are awesome. The company also worries a lot regarding work life balance. They won't overwork you."

"I loved working for Microsoft. I left because a long 7 years finally got me itching to move and some career stagnation because I never left my group/project. I encourage you to move around in this company (especially when you get promoted), best way to get ahead and get vast experience. All the tools you could ever need to do your job but almost no control or ownership over what you are doing (at least in the well established products)."

"I have worked for Microsoft since 2002 and have learned a lot about software development, database systems, distributed systems and cloud computing."

"Microsoft is a legendary company. When you working at it you feel yourself as a part of something huge and incredible. But still like any big problem Microsoft has several problems in bureaucracy and internal complex processes."

"I've worked for Microsoft since the early 90s. It's been a great place to learn engineering. The profitability allows Microsoft to sustain engineering projects that have only long term payoff. However the profitability also leads to negative behaviors in middle and upper management in their quest to create the next billion dollar business. Satya's new leadership is refreshing, if you want to fit in."

"Originally worked for Nokia and Microsoft acquired the company. The original communication was that Microsoft was keeping the OEM business, later changing the overall strategy to not keeping the OEM business."

"Good place to work but work on a masters to move up and get pmi certification."
