      Pros

      Incredible people, benefits and culture

      Cons

      1.) Some folks can be a little too sensitive or easily offended so you have to be super careful of what you say.. 2.) There is a lot of process to follow which hinders productivity.

      Almost perfect

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work life balance, treating each other like humans/respect, 100% remote, 50% 401k match, engineering culture, parental leave, and other fringe benefits: Microsoft discounts, annual L&D budget, like 90% HSA contribution, awesome laptops, etc.

      Cons

      Microsoft's claws are finally in and getting deeper. It started with minor things like switching from Zoom to Teams. But now it's extending to other aspects, including 2 (and soon to be 3) time trackers. Thomas is overly taken by AI/Copilot at the expense of other features/products. And it feels like it's getting harder to get promoted.

      Messy management

      Pros

      Good remote life benefits, education and work from home stipends are quite generous. Remote working is encouraged for most teams which is increasingly rare these days.

      Cons

      HR is nonexistent and unresponsive, worst HR team I have ever seen in my working career who seem to be rejects from Microsoft. SLT seem inexperienced and coasting and unable to reach the goals set forth by Microsoft. Remote working is great but if you want to meet in person in a location outside SF or Bellevue it might be difficult or impossible, team travel budget has been slashed after a recent layoff.
