Smart Team, Bureaucratic Structure
Smart Team, Bureaucratic Structure
Microsoft has a very competent engineering workforce. You are always working with some of the best of the best here. Even as a vendor, I am treated as one of the team.
There is a very bureaucratic structure, sometimes a lack of communication at upper levels, and poor adoption of some of their own software.
My advice to the management at Microsoft would be to flatten the org a bit and slim down the overhead for the release cycle.
