Employment status: current

Rewarding challenge
Pros: There are lots of training that you can tap into. The new One Microsoft with the growth mindset means that everyone needs to help each other out. If you're happy with traversing your own path about what works with little direction, this is the place for you as a Program Manager (although, this is very dependent on the teams). If you're bored, not challenged or too challenged, you can always move to another team. Benefits are very good, and almost as great as an Australian standard employment work.
Cons: Be ready to learn to dive and swim very quickly. This is not a place where you get too relaxed. The place rewards those who are challenge seekers. Be prepared to be in charge of your own work-life balance.
