Pros

Microsoft is a good place to work for IF you team leaders are knowledgeable.

Cons

I joined News and feeds team at Microsoft with high hopes and enthusiasm, expecting a collaborative and supportive workplace. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from what I initially envisioned. The organization's leadership seems to lack the qualities of effective leaders. They not only micro-manage their teams but also create an environment that fosters toxicity and undermines employee morale. It's disheartening to witness the consistent favoritism and the tendency to gang up against certain team members. Such practices erode trust and hinder open communication, which are essential for any healthy work environment. It has become clear that the leadership's actions do not align with the values of fairness, respect, and professionalism that should be upheld. In conclusion, my time at Microsoft news and team has been marked by challenges stemming from leadership practices that hinder personal and professional growth. I hope that these concerns are addressed, and the organization can evolve into a more supportive and inclusive workplace in the future.

Pros

Good benefits with HR policies, incentives, leaves and flexile working hours Good for explore new technology training and technology skill upgradation

Cons

I found severe unprofessionalism in HK local management/ collegues and supervisors ( specifically Data & AI team) and Account management team. I find it extremely disrespectful, disgraceful and unacceptable on how this company prioritizes "profit" over the employees' skill and expertise without regard for merit. No proper account planning , unrealistic industry solutions for Customer rather the company's sole focus is on making money( $$$) and how to meet the target regardless of obstacles faced Global policy wise very good including India / US teams are really helpful but local Management (HK) is really bad. so that very difficult to work this team
