Employment status: current

great company with strong potential
Pros: great benefits and job stability. to drill down a bit the benefits are one of the best you could find in US. There is a strong process and emphasis on using technology in your day to day life. You have th eflexibility for work but you need to fulfil your commitments at the end of the year and that is what counts. There is a huge number of middle level managers in microsoft which are kind of redundant and overhead managing 3 or 4 people and doing nothing individually. I think they need to be fired if microsoft needs to compete with google.
Cons: too much work, too many layers
