Principled Work, Unstable Future
Principled Work, Unstable Future
People here really try to work by the principles defined in the organization; I sense no hypocrisy there. Microsoft tries to lead the trend of gen AI and makes adjustments in how the work is done, which could be a pro if you think this trend is here to stay. There is no retaliation policy on negative feedback towards management.
Salaries could be better. A lot of layoffs and reorganizations have happened recently, leading to no job stability. The upper management's decisions are not transparent. They are stingy with food in the office.
