Pros

May be buildings nothing much to say

Cons

Azure is very old school and far behind AWS/GCP. Azure is surviving on Microsoft base and very old school . I wonder how can they sustain long term growth. Poor pay and very political.

Pros

charitable company. Pockets of good people--individual contributors

Cons

Bad politics; inexperienced selfish middle managers; if your manager does not like you; you are done. No notice; no corrective action plans to work toward a solution--you are done. Company was family oriented but that has changed over the last 3.5 years.
