You will learn life skills with veteran microsoft politicians. It will help you to become better leader in future. Better join politics after this.
Less stocks and stupid level system. Less growth after principal.
Wondering if y’all have seen a pretty ridiculous push lately at msft to hire less qualified diversity candidates over more qualified non-minority candidates, and if you think it’s right or not. Personally, I have noticed literally the last 10 hires in my org have been diversity candidates where the...Read more
I need Microsoft folks to kindly provide insights on this. My wife is Hispanic and she was contacted by a Microsoft recruiter for screening interviews with a partner and a senior director at Microsoft. However, the position is showing “No longer accepting applications”. Based on past experience, wif...Read more
interviewed at msft late in may (a week+ ago). I haven’t heard anything from the recruiter expect they will get back to me when they will. He mentioned my level (target 66) requires a diversity slate hiring approach since I’m non diverse. I’m all for diversity, but im becoming disinterested in the ...Read more
Hi there, A year ago I was determined to get a job at Microsoft, I like how the company has changed under the new leadership and my resume was able to get me some traction from HR and a few interviews. After 13 on-site interviews with the company and no offers, I wondered if I should close that ch...Read more
Does Microsoft even have some sort of diversity or is it now full of Indians? I get approached by the Microsoft recruiters but I feel like under the guise of diversity and inclusion, Microsoft has actually filled up Indians and skewed the diversity to the other extreme. Are Indians a majority at Mic...Read more
Have been contacted by an internal recruiter for an experienced role at Microsoft (L65). When planning for the interviews, they told me „we have a deadline until end of next week (for all interviews), then the hiring manager wants to decide, and I would really like you to join. And I assume you woul...Read more
There's no diversity in our organization. If you see the recent new hire emails, almost everyone is from an Indian origin. Are there no qualified Americans that we need to hire foreigners? I don't have anything against engineers from these countries but our hiring process is broken. Why are America...Read more
Talking with my msft friends, I have heard about rampant nepotism and diversity practices at Microsoft. Executive daughters getting into the internship program clearly through family blood, hires getting hired because their uncle is the VP, engineers not even having onsite interviews cause they kno...Read more

Writing my Connect at Microsoft and there’s a big focus on Diversity and Inclusion (D&I). We need to commit to at least one focus area and define how we will measure our success in that area. Serious question, does anyone take this shit seriously? One of the options is to “engage in 3+ constructive...Read more
I know a lot of tech companies practice diversity hiring whether for good or bad reason. But I read somewhere that Microsoft does it the most and they give incentives to people who participate in EXPLORE? Can anyone at microsoft elaborate?
WTF is the purpose of hiring a white lady to represent diversity employees at Microsoft. What a kick in our face! There wasn’t a qualified person of color capable of taking on the job? Discuss?
Sometimes it feels like certain hires who happen to belong to a diversity group are paid more or have more leeway for error. Or maybe it's just my team. Not in any way comparing skill levels.

I recently received a ppt circulating in Microsoft titled "Women in work place." (PFA). It was primarily focused on How diversity representation is less on leadership level in comparison to Males. And that is something WRONG and needs correction by achieving equal representation of black, asian, lg...Read more
I want to hear everyone's honest opinion on them, especially about its long term effect on the company.
