Microsoft reviews

Resources, Resources, Resources. Best benefits around. Microsoft invests in its employees. Microsoft gets a lot of negative heat for not being a consumer-oriented business. This is true on many levels, and is a category that I believe Steve B. will change (especially through online/digital media). Internally, Microsoft is extremely focused on its employees. The major problem taking place in the digital marketing space is that competition and turnover are both commmanding forces. They take a toll on Microsoft because Microsoft is often unwilling to bump salaries in response to external job offers with higher pay. We lose a lot of top talent because of this. There is obviously a major cost/benefit economic equation to factor into these scenarios, but I think they are looked at too holistically, and should instead be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Resources a mile wide and a mile deep. Microsoft has lots of money and is committed to spending in on its people. So compensation is excellent, benefits are out of the world, and you'll have everything you need in terms of hardware, software, and staffing. As a result, they attract the best people in the world, which is the best resource of all. You will never find smarter people or better managers.
