MS is not for software developers
You can do nothing and still get paid.
Classic Office Space. I.e. work-life balance is totally "life."
I recall people being fired on the day they were expecting to hear about the bonus. The engineering culture is not even close to usual NYC fintech. Lots of product/project managers generate tons of emails, and everyone has to read them. Some developers are pretty smart, but overall, I think there are so many other opportunities for software engineers that MS should be the last resort.
