They treat you well, but have no direction. They are constantly changing direction and have lousy metrics for measuring performance

They really take good care of you. Work-life balance is great for a tech job. They care about your health and well-being and take your feedback seriously.
Lousy management. They have no focus or direction at all and are too concerned with raw numbers and quarterly results instead of company direction or quality.
Things look like they are improving under Satya N., but it is difficult to undo so many years of mismanagement quickly.
Their assessment process is terrible: they rely on numbers, e.g., number of tests, lines of code, instead of what those numbers represent.
Better mentorship programs, improve the review process, and stop making everyone compete with each other.
