Fantastic Employer - Amazing Benefits and Superb COVID-19 Response
Pros: Good pay, industry leading benefits, when the COID-19 crisis hit, I was never afraid for my job security and while a lot of other companies suspended or cut employee benefits, Microsoft actually expanded theirs without hesitation. I am extremely grateful that I was working for Microsoft when the pandemic hit.
Cons: In Support we are viewed as a cost center and as such, we are squeezed for efficiency and have to fight for any additional resources or headcount that we may need. Leadership is receptive but change is slow.

Workload can be overwhelming at times and processes paint a different expectation than reality.
