Good benefits and infrastructure, but lots of politics
Good benefits and infrastructure, but lots of politics
The company is very wealthy.
This means a lot of infrastructure and good benefits.
Lots of politics. You don't necessarily get rewarded by what you do. It depends a lot on perception. A person with a high job title doesn't mean a high performer, and a person with a low job title doesn't mean a low performer.
Change this competitive culture so people will enjoy the workplace more.

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.
