Microsoft

None that I can think of

1. Bad weather makes you sick, drives you crazy, with no sunlight for months in winter, which is October to next June.

2. Bad and dishonest managers assign all non-visible work to you and leave visible work to their favorite person.

3. It is a popularity contest. The work is simple; anybody can do it. The question is how to get popular.

4. You are not valued based on your work. Since the work is simple, it is purely up to the manager; they can give you a 1 or a 5 as they wish.

5. Not so smart engineers. Most engineers are so-so. Good ones are not happy with the review and left. The survivors are very good at fighting and politics.

6. They completely ignore the fact that you made the system more stable. They think you are just fixing things, and you have no value. Ever wonder why Ms. product sucks?

7. You are working for a dead, rotten wood. After a few years, you start thinking their way, which is a clumsy, clunky way, rather than a simple, effective way of creating software.

8. The building seems always full of car exhaust pollution, maybe because of the cold weather and the underground parking. I am sure the CO is very high, making people very sleepy all the time.

9. Nobody in the industry does things Ms. does because nobody can afford the waste. Do you think your knowledge can apply somewhere else?

I definitely regret working here; I wasted my time.
