Pros
- nice office in central location - decent payment for a starting job - chance to know very good or bad colleagues
Cons
-extremely incompetent management(Azure Networking manager doesn't actually check backlog and take necessary actions, uses condescending voice/attitude towards new hires, colleagues from other teams say he has weird behavior, MS management doesn't strive to make workflow easier and faster, doesn't care about updating documentation on Azure products, you are entirely at the mercy of PTAs some of which are arrogant and don't care if there is missing documentation -no work-life balance -overtime because of huge backlog due to many factors including unresponsive/non tech savvy customers, lack of skills and missing documentation, escalations are practically non existing -you have to use Quick Assist for remote screensharing, Avaya for phone call or if customer wants can invite you in MS Teams - that makes work even slower -high pressure, no rewards, you can have an SME/TL that dont like you or just dont want to help - you depend on SME/TL/PTA sympathy -high chance you will enter production with zero training(deploying VMs is absolutely not enough for production) and no account access to the core tools - low payment for such stress and bs - Azure VM and Networking teams struggle to keep employees more from 1 year as Team Leads are incompetent.
