I recently accepted offer at Microsoft and is about to start virtual initially. I git an email from recruiter regarding shipping the laptop, however it doesn’t mention the type. Which type should I expect? Is it Mac or Surface or Intel? Which laptop does Microsoft gives its employees for development?#returntooffice #microsoft #redmond #amazon

      I got surface laptop 4 and when I placed it next to my MB Pro 14”, surface looked like shit. One of the cons along with low TC when working at MS.

      Funny u say that. For the first time, I am using MacBook and the OS and software is sh!t. It just looks pretty but for working 10 hrs a day, I use external monitors anyway. There are 10 different shortcuts to just increase the size of text; the green full screen window is a pain; its OS seems to be made for stupid people who like to see windows flying around in snazzy animations. Prefer windows anyway! And Microsoft Surface Pros are awesome.

    They don’t mention details even if we ask. I did not get a few packages in mail and when I told them this is what I haven’t received they did not bother to reply.

      Yeah, I told that guy. Even before sending I asked what I should be expecting and when. Did not get any reply and on a random day got some stuff. I replied to that mail again telling this is what I have got. He says this is what I have sent. I said three things are missing, if you could give me tracking number to follow up with the courier company. No reply.
