I don't think there are pros.
After the re-org and layoffs, I don't recommend going.
I applied through a recruiter. I recently completed a Microsoft hiring event consisting of four rounds: two coding interviews and two OOD (Object-Oriented Design) interviews. Interestingly, for an SDE2 loop, there was no dedicated system design roun
4 interview rounds of 1 hour each: 1. DSA round: 1 medium, 2 hard problems 2. LLD round: Design a build generation system 3. HLD round: Unique ID generator with constraints 4. Hiring Manager round: Resume, behavioral, and HLD system design
I was given a difficult, three-question assessment, which I was able to finish and did very well on. The only issue is the recruiter who ghosted me. It's been more than three weeks, and I have not received any response regarding next steps.
