A decent place to work
A decent place to work
Microsoft looks good on the resume, and I still think it's an attractive place for a new graduate to work. They can learn strong principles of software development and make a good living as well.
The organization is now large and bureaucratic, and management has yet to develop a compelling on-line strategy.
People can easily get lost in the company, and there are only a few groups where there is that high-level of entrepreneurial spirit.
I would recommend that the company invest more on the enterprise side of the business and less on the consumer side, which they'll never win.

Online questionnaire with detailed questions and screening filters to hone selection. This was then followed by an initial interview by phone, and this was conducted by an HR representative who was courteous and prompt.

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.
