Microsoft has grown up and doesn't play well with others
You get to meet and work with some great people from around the country and around the world.
Some people are cutthroat about what they will do to other employees to get ahead. This is especially true now that Microsoft is a big company and the stock is not performing.
If you're fresh out of school, you will get fewer opportunities to put your skills to the test. There's a long line of older and more senior employees looking for opportunities to get ahead. They don't like to share.
If you have a disability, HR may try to use constructive discharge to get rid of you. This can also happen as you approach the age where you are protected from age discrimination.
I don't give free advice anymore. It's not like they would recognize good advice anyway, and they wouldn't take it unless they could take credit for it.
