Microsoft Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I've worked with them on contract for many years. Was and still is a stellar company"

"Big disconnect between lower and higher management No direction, no structure, no order"

"Great place to learn and grow a career! Lots of change even though it is a large company. Definitely a great place to be if you want to build platforms in a highly collaborative environment."

"Very good opportunities to learn, great work environment, but the workload makes the job very stressful"

"I worked for Great Plains and acquired by Microsoft in 2001 for a total of 20 years. Microsoft employs 130,000+ globally and I worked with many individuals across the globe, visiting many countries in my project work. Microsoft also has well over 100,000 vendors that help support the company's growth. I worked for Satya Nadella, who is currently Microsoft's CEO, for a period of time during my work as an executive assistant. I followed his lead in my development and was able to accomplish many things at this successful compay."

"I have worked at Microsoft for about a year now. The exposure to different technologies and large data sets is very good."

"I have worked with Microsoft since 2017. I must say there is a lot of opportunities but even with that, you have to know people or be in the right team for actual career growth as its such a huge organization. Also, you only assigned a little piece and to get width is left to you."

"Been at Microsoft for four years. It's so big that judging it a monolith would be unfair. There is a culture to it, but I haven't had any other job. It seems healthy, and promotes a good work/life balance. You grow as much as you can push."

"I worked for Microsoft for 5 years and loved it. What a wonderful place to work. Super smart people and great compensation. Benefits are exceptional as well."

"I've loved my time at Microsoft. They respect their employees, provide training and direction but still allow enough freedoms to change the business process for a better alternative. After relocating back to my home state of NY, the role was no longer supported remotely so I am looking to start work for a company local to NYC."
