      Wonderful company plagued by the same classic problems that impacts most of the tech industry

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay, vacation, benefits, facilities (referring to HQ), large org with many possible paths for an individual's career trajectory. A focus on volunteering and giving back that very few other large organization's make a reality.

      Cons

      It's still a tech company in the Bay Area, and though there are many initiatives to promote diversity in place, it can still feel very white, male dominated and leave employees who belong to a minority fending for themselves when it comes to social interactions and handling a constant stream of micro aggressions. Favoritism and cliques are just another part of day-to-day life here and it makes it hard to not be concerned about how these factors may impact your hard work as well as your ability to be fairly promoted. Also the fact that the entire branding of the company has basically appropriated Hawaiian culture is beyond problematic. The actual look of this is slowly going away as each office is getting remodeled to look more like the new tower, but let's be careful about how we enable entitled, white individuals to take on a term like "Ohana" and throw it around as mere corporate culture fodder.

      Infrastructure org is worst, Ex-MSFT atelier

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Work life balance. - The value of Trust and Security. - Volunteering, 1:1:1 model - Agile - Free Food - Lucky for you if you are part of R&D/Engineering team *not* Infrastructure org

      Cons

      - Ex-Microsoft employee factory in infrastructure org. - No innovation or automation opportunities provided across multiple teams especially in infrastructure delivery. - Silo teams/individuals working for their own growth and stock renewals. - Lack of transparency from Ex-MSFT Management. - Cross-cloud collaboration is worst. - People outside HQ (San Francisco/US) are left to their own fate. - No encouragement from local managers on career growth. - No encouragement from local leadership to participate in OOM. (Opportunities in different teams) - People working in infrastructure org are treated as third class citizens.

      Bait and switch

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Free snacks - Senior management exposure

      Cons

      - Was sold to me as a "strategy job" but don't be fooled this is 80% sales ops - The hours, you work like you're in a start-up without any of the equity - Pay is low for this type of role, even in comparison to most start-ups - The team is very short staffed and cannot handle the workload it's constantly given - The systems used are terrible, slow and outdated. Performance issues with the analytics tools can easily add 2-3 hours to your day. - I really can't stress enough how bad the hours are
