Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: former

HIghly political with long term Microsofties protecting their jobs as priority #1.
Pros: R&D is extensive with some forward looking value to helping IT and Consumers.
The workers are genuine, smart, creative.
The multi-cultural environment add strong value to being a global thinking company.
Cons: Management is slow to act to new markets and to internally focused on protecting their high share software markets (windows, office).  
They don't foster a collaborative atmosphere; they manage by fear and cliques.
