Pros

Good benefits. International colleagues. Nice office location.

Cons

You are a number. Simple offer and demand strategy.

You are laid off to reduce costs. It doesn't matter your level of performance.

Sales approach and attitude of colleagues changes from region to region. Singapore is money-focused: if you can pay, then you can get.

Advice to Management

You need to work on how Microsoft is perceived in the Asian region, starting with your staff. "There are no bad teams, just bad leaders." - Navy SEALs.
