Great place to work and learn
- Great environment to work with, with a lot of flexibility around working hours.

- Some MS products are in maintenance mode, and if you are stuck in those teams, there is not much to learn.
- Management has a lot of old guys with 20+ years of experience who are not adding much value to the company but are holding top posts.
- Some products do not have a clear future roadmap, and they get shut down before reaching the customers.
