Pros

Microsoft is a great and exciting place to work. The work-life balance in the UK is sufficient, and when longer hours are required, this is acknowledged. Management at a regional level is fairly competent.

Cons

Senior leadership at a global level is incredibly disconnected from the reality in the field. Expectations and business change are bent across the board to ensure success.

Advice to Management

Review feedback from the field. Understand the morale impact of decisions.
