Microsoft

Nice pay. WFH first culture. Great office culture. Very impactful work in Azure orgs and lots of career growth. WLB may be poor or good depending on how quickly you ramp up and understand the systems.

Recent layoffs across the company shocked many people.

Azure orgs have a steep learning curve because the systems are complex. On-call and incident-driven work may not be for everyone.

Azure is quite complex to ramp up. Depending on your manager and the level you are hired at, you may be expected to understand the systems in an unreasonable amount of time. This gets worse when senior employees do not help well with ramp-up or do not have good documentation available.

Azure has lots of different orgs, so all I am saying here is that it's team-dependent. I don't know how it is in other orgs or teams across Microsoft.

The quicker you ramp up, the easier the job becomes, and the better your confidence and WLB will be.
