I spent 6 months working as a contractor in MS’ Chicagoland data centers. Nothing worked — phones on the walls ran Windows and did not give dial tone. Security systems unable to function because of Windows updates. Personnel more concerned with their required LinkedIn updates than their jobs. Not one FTE liked their role — everyone had a foot out the door.
When they offered to make me FTE I declined and moved on. Because it was an obvious absolute shit-show.
Sorry for those that are currently employed by MS.
We had a vending machine that required an app that made you buy tokens to access the food in the vending machines. Said app was a masterpiece of dark patterns. Put money in, maybe, if you're lucky, get food out. Maybe.
