Software Engineer
Pros: very dedicated, knowledgeable, energetic and nice colleagues around every team I met here
we try to seek solutions from both internal code base as well as open source projects out there. This is definitely different from what I've heard about MSFT before joining.
Cons: The referral program has some constraints that may pull the company's leg. For example, we can't refer college graduates while almost all those SV startups can (they even do internal referrals for interns). The referral bonus is lower than the competitors.
