Hello all, I start with Microsoft in 3 weeks as l61. I will start remote and then move but my team is split in Atlanta and Redmond and I am in Atlanta but manager and skip are not.
This is going to be my first big tech job. I should be really happy and proud due to tc jump but I am very afraid of breaking things and causing problems. I keep reading msft pip and bad wlb posts and it's causing me a lot of stress and despair.
How should I motivate myself and build confidence? I have had email exchange with hm who is my m1 and they said when I start we can figure out good fit.
Old TC: 66K
New TC: 160K

My partner was at Microsoft for 15 years and had a decent WLB except close to ship dates. Also, the days of strict stack ranking left with Ballmer.
