Better than most of the options available in India (in terms of brand value and salary).
All the work is non-critical to Microsoft.
Change it. Bring great engineers into management positions rather than just long-time Microsofties.
I had to meet with four interviewers. The last one was an optional "as appropriate" interview. All questions were coding-related. I was evaluated on how I solved the problems. I was very nervous, but this wasn't held against me.
There were many interviewers, each providing a few coding questions. They were not too easy, nor too difficult. It was very fair, and the interviewers were fun to talk with.
Excellent process and thorough. I interviewed with several engineers and received prompt follow-up. They also set up all the travel and other arrangements for a successful interview. However, there was some waiting time between interviews.
