Pretty chill, so you will be able to spend time learning and growing.
Big. BIG. BIG organization. Hard to make an impact. Things move slow.

Microsoft Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
It was a little tricky at the beginning. They asked for a lot of requirements, but it made sense because it's Microsoft, right? The person who interviewed me was very nice.
Software Engineer
It was difficult, but not impossible. As you might expect, it was less hands-on and more algorithm-heavy. If you prepare, you will do okay, provided you have memorized enough LeetCode problems. I would recommend prepping for a few weeks.
Software Engineer
It was okay, nothing too hard. Just be prepared for a lot of questions, and that's pretty much it. If you are really enthusiastic, that is good. Just be ready and always smile. Also, be prepared, like I said before, and you should be good to go.
