Pros

The type of work depends on the team. Some teams have flexible timings, and some teams work day and night. Most of the products have great impact, as they are used by lakhs of people.

The work culture is really great. The growth can be really fast if you can produce great results.

The campus is big, and there are plenty of options like gym/games to do outside work hours.

Cons

Less visibility outside the team.

Most of the impactful work is assigned to senior members of the team.

No travel opportunities.

Less team outings.

Suboptimal food in the cafeteria.

We don't leave the Microsoft ecosystem during the development process. We have internal tools for everything, some good, some not so good.

You don't learn much about other technologies, so it might hamper your chance of joining other companies.

Some politics during performance reviews.

Advice to Management

Stop hiring so many people. Otherwise, good performers won't prefer to stay or join this company.
