Pros

Microsoft is a huge company, and the employee experience can vary drastically depending on the organization. I'm part of Microsoft AI, and I love the challenges and the coworkers I get to collaborate with. Every day is a chance to learn, grow, and tackle new problems. Generally, work life balance is good and get a lot of support from many great managers.

Cons

Depending on who and which team you're working with, there's quite a bit of bureaucracy. You’ll also often encounter territorial mindsets, especially from the legacy orgs, which can be very annoying as well. Lastly, the morale is on the lower side with the new RTO mandate and continuous layoffs.

Pros

Great pay, decent benefits and you get to work with some great people

Cons

With brutal layoffs, Microsoft has repeatedly demonstrated that they have NO regard for the human beings who work for them. They only care about money. To reduce costs, even though stock is at an all-time high and the company is worth over three TRILLION dollars, this year they laid off or fired thousands of loyal employees with an incredible cumulative amount of brain-power that they have spent decades recruiting, hiring and growing with no notice whatsoever. Looking for a career? Look for a company who wants to give you one instead of this one that just wants to bleed you dry and then throw you away.
