Pros

Good facilities, canteen, and a good team, except for management. Looks nice on your CV that you worked at Microsoft. Good salary.

Cons

Bad job, bad management. The American (or whatever you call it) interview was hard (3 days). The culture is bad and toxic. All senior engineers will give out on you, even when you follow the contract agreement or rules. WTF? I need to raise a hand to go to the toilet, or my colleague needs to go pray for 5 minutes? You can't grow within the team, but I was a contractor, so I can't judge if I was a full-time employee.

Advice to Management

Be real, listen to your team, and protect them from stupid people working in senior roles.
