Great Place to Work

Pros

Working in the Microsoft Center Of Excellence was a great experience with a collaborative team. The salary and benefits were fair, and my managers and team leaders were super helpful withy any assistance in reaching my goals.

Cons

Since Microsoft products are always changing and evolving, there were times where different customer options were released without full development, which created challenges for the customer facing workforce. There was also some disorganization with internal processes, which would make delivery of solutions inefficient.

Pros

Good co-workers and good people in general, except for management (line) and upper. Good WLB for the most part.

Cons

Very depressed environment. Co-workers have mental issues incl management. They are unhappy in life and that comes down to us (their attitude, communications, etc). No career growth and treated like slaves at times. People get stuck here. And it's a big problem. I work with very talented SAs here but they could do so much better somewhere else and reach their potential, but they get stuck here and get "marinated". Then these talented SAs starting to become mediocre, like the rest and lose their motivation. Very bad to see that. And that's what happened to me too. I used to be so motivated. Now I can't look at myself in the mirror. I have to drink a lot because the env is so bad. I feel like I died inside already. Please don't repeat my steps. If you join - do so but only work for a year and MOVE ON. Else - you will be like me and feel like a loser. Trust me. Pay is low, expectations are high. Doesn't make sense... Big downturns. No involvment from the VP anymore. not sure. Now the sales control us. Overall, not a good compay for ambitions and motivated talent. Maybe if you ready to retire soon - you may feel like this is a good descending place. All the good talent already left - check LinkedIn! Whoever is stayed here are just like me (lxsers) and I'm not afraid to admit it. I'm a true lxser... Juts a hursh truth.
