Bad local branches inside a great company
Bad local branches inside a great company
Satya Nadella is a great CEO and has a great strategy. The company is competing very well with its competitors. Great people are working in Redmond.
Local branches in Europe are, essentially, sales organizations. Short-sighted, they are not interested in providing business value to the customer. Their only objective is to sell everything as fast as possible (typically for yesterday).
Reduce the organizational distance between Redmond and local branches.
Check directly the distortions of the strategy and rules that are happening in the local branches outside the USA.

Straightforward but took several months. Interviews all went well. Then, for my final interview, I had a no-show for one of my three rounds. I believe this severely impacted my final outcome, as the other two rounds went really well.

The interview involved two phones, with one group completing five rounds. Each round lasted 44 minutes, followed by a 15-minute break. The interviewers were nice and friendly. I was able to answer most of the questions.

Great conversation with the manager, an exceptional interaction with the team, and a very keen interest in what else I could bring to the organization. I had three interviews to get the job.
