Pros

Office is in a good location.

Cons

There are some good engineers, but a lot of bad ones too. Lots of ppl get let go for performance reasons. Hiring process is a joke. They don’t do technical interviews. Anyone can get a job here. Compensation and perks are bottom of the barrel for Seattle. Long hours we often required. No signing bonus or relocation provided

Pros

You'll meet some talented colleagues and get to work on a great deal of Microsoft projects.

Cons

Silent layoffs with colleagues disappearing without notice or explanation. Hours allocated to projects rarely reflect actual workload — employees are expected to juggle multiple client projects simultaneously with low allocation per project, tight timelines, and high quality standards to meet client expectations during presentations. Consistent pressure from leadership to be more cross-functional, take on additional responsibilities, and drive 100% renewal of existing client contracts. Many colleagues are based in Kochi, India, requiring employees to work extended hours or adjust their schedules to bridge the communication and time zone gap. Paid below market rate.
