Microsoft as Workplace
I spent a few years in Bing, learning from arguably some of the brightest folks in the industry about distributed systems and application development. I would say it's a really good place to learn technical prowess in different areas of the software industry.
I feel that the review system is sometimes more or less solely dependent on manager feedback. There is no real accounting for what your peers think about you as a contributing member of the team.
Peer reviews are sort of just a formality, and ultimately, the manager decides everything.

First round OA with two questions, about LeetCode medium. Final round: three technical interviews, with coding questions. Since the JD mentioned language C, the coding question was done with C.

I had a 45-minute phone call with a recruiter regarding an engineering position. They discussed the specific team I was applying to join, as well as Microsoft's workplace culture in general.

The interview was easy. Most of the questions they asked were LeetCode easy. Unfortunately, I haven't been selected even after answering everything perfectly. I think they rejected me because of the ongoing visa issues.
