Work in Microsoft during lockdown
Work in Microsoft during lockdown
The company had a very strong response to COVID-19, particularly in London. Employees didn’t have to visit the office for at least 6 months when I was working there, to prevent the virus spread by commuting.
The work laptop I was sent for WFH was a little slow, in particular when building and rebuilding projects. I could order another one, but I decided to work from my home PC instead.
Make sure to create a Teams meeting for every meeting you want to have via voice or video.
