Is it still a dinosaur ?. Is going to Microsoft a dead end ? Does MS pay less than Amazon ? Will I still grow as an engineer?
Depends on the team
Microsoft is an awesome place to work. You set your own pace and balance between wlb and career growth. Worked there for years and it was awesome.
Microsoft is really good. I've worked at Amazon and moving out of here soon. But at Microsoft, if you're in a good team you can really grow your career or even rest and vest and choose wlb over career. It's really upto you. If you're performing well, in my experience Microsoft pays more or at least equal to Amazon. Good thing is that Microsoft doesn't follow Amazon's comp model of limiting your pay according to stock growth. Last few years at least, Microsoft stock has done very well.
Interviewing for microsoft onsite soon! I hope i can join you guys!
Depends on team. No. Yes. That’s on you.
Probably most of azure teams are good
At Microsoft they pay really really well at senior levels.
Ugh wtf! I'm fucking tired of this shit on blind rn
