Microsoft reviews

Guys, Never ever join in MSIT division of Microsoft. MSIT is not Microsot. Even companies like Mindtree, wipro are 1000 times better than MSIT. I have never seen such a worst workplace in my life. They recruit you as a senior technical resource and they give you documentation work. Here freshers do coding and leads do documentation for that code. You may expect that people here are technically good but it is completely wrong. There are many technical leads here who don't even know what CLR is. Extreme level of politics by North Indians and Tamilians. Managers here work for 10-15 years and they don't know what the outside world is. There is no process at all here. No one cares how good you are technically. You need to do hungama to get recognized From Day 1 of your joining, they scare you about your appraisal and they threaten you on the same.

Culture over the last few years has been declining, and is now very toxic and cannibalistic. The new review system drives the wrong behavior and is very demoralizing. Microsoft has publicly said that these elements are appropriate for a "high performance company", so don't expect changes. The company speaks of the business value of work/life balance, but does not support it with action within their management philosophies.
