This is a thread to talk what is it like working in Microsoft. Feel free to chip in, guys and gals from MSFT.
Let me just start by saying I'm a 13 years old MSFT veteran. I am still working there but I believe many of us will be layoff very soon. Could be as soon as 2-3 weeks... we will see. There are so many changes nowadays.
I didn't even know MS was in advertising... I mean outside of their own products.
Tell them to work together with blackberry the blackberry passport is a nice phone that should work together with microsoft because of the keyboard/screen combo. Like add outlook/MS office for productivity and MS gains customers and blackberry gains corporate users for their security technology
My uncle worked for Microsoft from the late 80s until around 2000 and retired a multimillionaire in his 40s due to stock options. He was just a low-level manager.

Those days are long gone...
that doesn't say much... getting to over million in stocks after being in the market for 20 years just needs around a 8% return each year just with maxing 401k and getting employer match (then watching it hit a crash and cry). Faster if they invest in their own ira/taxable accounts as well

Long gone. They work us like low level animals nowadays
one thing seems pretty clear...satya doesn't mess around and he's not afraid to cut thousands of jobs. good for him.
I listened to his internal Q&A session. He gave us the new mission statement and it's totally clear to me that this company is going down, becoming irrelevant. I am actually hoping to get layoff and start a new career path..

I've always heard since the 80's that you could work at MSFT for 7 years even as a janitor or security guard, and become a millionaire, if you were fully vested in the stock options.
