Why you shouldn't work here
Why you shouldn't work here
Smart people, and not just smart in coding, but smart overall.
Also, for a company Microsoft's size, they still tend to occasionally turn out above-average products.
I would also comment that the compensation was market price.
It is a good place to write code.
Support staff, at least in the Microsoft Hyderabad (India) office where I worked, was very bad. They would keep creating problems for me.
Very insular. Difficulty in communication with management, and occasionally co-workers. Also, a lot of dead weight (or so it seemed) with people slacking off. Microsoft is not what it used to be, although there are still some smart people around.
Hire younger people, out of school.

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.
