Haha a friend was just recommending I apply for a job there. I told her hell no. It's one of the worst in big tech. Probably second worst after twitter.

The next one she came up with was Microsoft lol. I work with them a lot and I hate it.

I work for an enterprise now but a pretty decent European one. I don't think I could work for a US big tech company.

I have had a long career working for F50 companies across a few decades. I can tell you, my time as a senior manager at Microsoft in mid 00’s has been the most pleasant experience I have had working in the private sector. A lot has changed in the past 20 years, but I am in touch with many colleagues still working there, and we still recommend Microsoft over the rest.

over my 25+ years I’ve heard the exact same thing - no personal experience, just hearing other people’s

[croes]

The people still working at MS recommend MS?

Quelle surprise.

[xmprt]

Working with Microsoft's customer facing tools and people is very different from working inside Microsoft. Not that you'll like one if you hate the other but just that they're different enough that you can't judge one by your experience with the other.

Expanding on this, even a little, would make your comment much more interesting.

I never heard it was bad at twitter! why is that?

[hn_acc1]

Seriously? After Elon bought it, you haven't heard of one bad thing about working there?

[relativ575]

Such as?

[consteval]

80% of the workforce being culled without any recourse or processes?

If I got a “tell me 5 things you did last week” email I would throw my computer through the window.

I’m sorry, that’s beyond toxic. That’s radioactive culture. I understand the need for layoffs. But I also understand mutual respect.

What's a decent european enterprise?
