Pluspunten

Fun work environment with some really great people who are passionate about what they do. Great benefits - great offices - I've made a lot of friendships that will last a long time.

Minpunten

There seems to be a strong sense of entitlements within the company (employees expecting people to clean up after them, baby them, etc.) - especially with the long-term employees. Unfortunately there are also many cliques. Lots of problems aren't addressed in the right way, but for example through witch-hunts over Slack (the internal method of communication). Even though the internal message is that 'career changes are encouraged' it is a very difficult and confusing process and I never felt like I had the support from my manager to pursue a career change.

Pluspunten

- Kind and talented co-workers - Generous AI token spend - Fairly transparent company (has been getting less transparent over the years) - Lots of opportunity for impact

Minpunten

- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined - Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower - Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering; they just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap - Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company - Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime
